Default Hardie Cement Pre-Painted House Siding: How Are Nail Heads Handled?

Robert11 wrote:
Hello:

I understand that the Hardie Fiber/Cement clapboard type of house siding
comes
pre-painted if one desires.

Question: how is the problem of the nail heads then handled ?
Do you have to hire someone to just go around and put a dab of paint on each
nail head ?

What am i missing here, please ?

Thanks,
Bob



Be aware, priming and painting is a all side proposition. Hardie siding
panels are ONLY primed/painted on the Top Side. All cuts and the back
side need to be primed for long life and any exposed nail heads and
seams need paint/caulk.
