🏡 From Black to Bright White: Cedar Siding Transformation in Harvard, IL!
After nearly 3 weeks, this cedar home in Harvard, Illinois went from weathered black to beautifully bright white — and what a transformation it was!

🎥 In this walkthrough, Dave from D’Franco Painting & Wallpaper covers:

How we cleaned severely weathered cedar (almost black!)

The exact paint system used: oil primer + 3 coats of Duration

The difference between new cedar vs. old cedar texture

Why we chose paint instead of stain

What to know before painting window trim (and how it may affect warranty)

Refreshing cedar AND oak posts with deck brightener and clear coat

The importance of power washing and surface prep

🎨 Paint & Product Breakdown

Oil bonding primer (for adhesion + sealing rough cedar)

Sherwin-Williams Duration (Exterior) – Pure White

Sherwin-Williams Emerald – Tricorn Black (for window trim)

Deck brightener for cedar/oak post restoration

No stain used — all solid paint for maximum longevity

💡 Pro Tip: Not all cedar is equal — older cedar will still show its grooves and texture even after painting. But that doesn’t mean it can’t look amazing with the right prep and products.
