Re: Paint vs stain

I would paint it with a good quality paint. I use Dunn Edwards. I'm not sure if it's available where you are and it is pricy.

I don't know if stain will provide the protection that you need. Maybe there is some new stuff that I don't know about that is super weather resistant.

Tim's right. That T1-11 needs to be given a good coat of paint or it will go downhill fast. Ask me how I know. That stuff is like a sponge.

T1-11 is like an ugly naked chick running in the snow. It needs some coverage.
