Buy a good vinyl acrylic with lots of acrylic. Most of the major brands have good exterior paints formulated for each weather region. CR rates exterior paints every 5 years or so.

Thanks!
The board an bat is 12" redwood boards that is old 1" thick boards. The bat is the same but 3" wide. While I am doing this, my plan is to remove all the boards, insulate, and house wrap the back side of the house. At this time, I will turn the boards backwards so that I am painting a new surface that has been protected all of it's life. This will minimize the paint scraping. So, the surface will be rough sawn redwood.
I'll have to take some photos.
