I've just purchased a house with cedar siding. The siding is about 10-15 years old and is well "weather-grayed" except for areas under the eaves which are mostly protected from the elements. Personally, I like the look of them, but my wife would like the siding to have it's youthful brown color.
Is there any way to restore/refresh the siding? Can it be stained or sealed to give it color that way? Or will staining/sealing counteract the natural insect and water resistance of the cedar?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
