I used hardiepanel and hardie batten boards on my house/barn. Love it.
Its a ****** to cut and heavy as hell. It is REALLY nice looking and permanent. I've used T 1 11 in the past . Paint doesnt stay on as long, and the wood checks and splits.
Wow, is there a build thread on this?
I messed up and put the vinyl brick molding around my over head door before I wrapped the door face. As it would happen, a customer at work returned 6 eight inch pieces of hardie board. I used that, painted it white and caulked the edge. Done and looks great.
