I lr-redarProo is the numbcr one Knotty Cedar siding because CedarPro performs. tVith consistent quality from unit to unit. Outstanding decay resistance and dimensional stability. Superior acceptance of stain and paint. And a natural beauty that can last a lifetime when it's treated correctly. Here's how to build yourself a classic.

Do what comes naturally.

CedarPro Siding is precision manufactured from natural Incense Cedar, and needs to "breathe." Even though it has been properly kiln-dried for its intended application, CedarPro Siding will still gain and lose a bit of moisture as it adapts to job-site conditions. For top performance, pre-condition your CedarPro Siding. Stack it evenly, with air space between layers. And allow it to rest on-site in a coveredarea for seven to ten days before you install it.

Once your CedarPro Siding has settled-in, minimize future changes by pre-sealing sides, edges, and ends of each length prior to installation. If you'll be painting the finished installation, use a moisture-resistant sealer.

Allow some room to move.

Changes in humidity will cause all wood products, including CedarPro Siding, to expand and contract. If courses are butted together or improperly nailed, these natural changes can cause cracking or loosening of individual lengths. So be on the safe side. Make sure the subsurface is properly spaced, allow the proper expansion clearance between courses, and don't over-nail

CedarPro Siding.

Finish clean and fast.

CedarPro Incense Cedar Siding readily accepts paint and stain. For a classic job, stain or paint CedarPro Siding before it is installed.

Carefully touch-up butt joints and other exposed ends with sealer and stain. Use a brush to work the finish into tight spaces. Seal-out moisture by caulking the joints around windows and doors with an acrylic or butyl compound.

If your plans cdl for painting after installation, do it as soon as possible to preclude weathering of the wood. If there's a lengthy delay between instdlation and finishing, be sure to clean your CedarPro Siding using a high-pressure waterwasher, and allow it to dry completely before applying the finish. Always be certain to read and follow the manufacturer's directions for applying primer and paint. For a first-place finish, apply a coat of high-quality, oil-based, stain-blocking primer to seal-in the siding's natural extracts. Then, as soon as the primer has dried, finish with a high-quality acrylic latex exterior house paint. A brush application will produce better results than a spray or roller application. For proper adhesion, apply the top coat within two weeks of the first finish coat.

Get into high gear.
