I have asked a previous question about removing Aluminum Siding and neglected to mention a few things so although the answers were helpful, they are not in line with what I'm trying to achieve.I do know you can paing aluminum siding, but it is full of dents and holes and bad spotsI would like to rip all of it off and restore the cedar siding that is underneath which is in pretty good condition in the area's we've looked atI've also spoken to the previous owners' son and my next door neighbor who has lived here since the houses were built in 1950She says the only reason they put siding on was to eliminate having to take care of it and because the aluminum siding was the quot;new best thingquot; out thereBefore the aluminum siding went up, they painted the cedarSo my question is how long will this process take and when is the best time to start the project?I live in Illinois, so we're hitting the cold season.
I think your name sound's coolYou could do Crafty Dublit, Artsy Dublit, Dublit's Decoupage, something like thatGood luck with your business and baby!
Going w/ William B Necessary to have a winter re-roof had vinyl siding put on to replace ratty old aluminum since it would be neater more weather tightNever againTearing off the old siding is not difficult , but you have to consider any damage you might do to the cedarSafer to leave it on over the winter just in case the cedar is not in such great shapeBest regards
