I need to replace some of my house outside paneling that is cedar (1'x9
1/4"x
various lengths). I was thinking of using wood screws because some of
the new
boards are cupped and the screws will pull the boards up tight to the
wall.
Can I use my nail gun? If so, are there any nails that would hold the
panel
tight against the wall? Also can I get galvenized or non rust nails?
I have over 100 panels to repair or replace so a nail gun sure would be
faster.
Any ideas? Thanks CB

Use glue coated, screw shank galvanized nails. They should be available
for most nail guns.

This is horrible advice. Never use galvanized with cedar.
