Spruce Exterior cladding?

bleedinmassive · 2012-01-20 13:44:34

HI. Im building a small wooden house at the moment and im at the point of doing the exterior cladding, cedar is a bit out of my price range . Question is can i use "interior" spruce tgv cladding on the outside if i use a wood preserve and a wood stain? hoping to stain it up so it looks like cedar, is this also possible?…

Nope. I wouldnt. There are a few cheaper options for you. Ring noyeks newmans or abbeywoods and discuss your options and pricerange with them.

They know their stuff and have a great range.

And no I have nothing to do with either other than being a regular client
