We have some really ugly siding. It's a pressed asphalt product made to look like wood shingles. A little information can be found on:
Anyone have any idea why this couldn't be painted? (We've actually done a small section on a third floor balcony (half enclosed) where it can't be seen from the street, and could be easilly replaced with a different material.... no problems seen yet)
Recomendations for type of paint? (oil/latex/alkaloid) I would think an outdoor latex, since it will move with the material.... but then wood moves and i would think an oil based paint would be good for that... so perhaps i'm off the mark.
