Cedar Railing
I need to refinish a cedar railing on a porch. It has been painted with a latex white paint. The owner said in a few months the railing is covered with mildew. The paint was suppose to be mildew resident. Is there a paint for this purpose or will she need a new railing and stain it?
Thanks |

Re: Cedar Railing
Bleach/soap/water mixture will kill the mildew and sounds like she has some crappy paint.

Re: Cedar Railing
I have cleaned the railing for her in the past 6 months with bleach/soap/water but the mildew came back.
