henryh I just started my reno with the existing garage. I replaced the white aluminum siding with cedar shingles. Had a tough time chosing color... I wanted a contemporary grey with white trim ...finally decided on C.I.L. solid stain "Grimmey's Grey"00NN 20/000 * A. (It looks very much like this) ... It was very creamy, easy to apply, great coverage and looks FANTASTIC!!
