I live in northern California, in the Central Valley. I have a long
exterior wall with a southern exposure that gets INTENSE summer sun
and the brunt of winter rain and fog.

My exterior siding is texture 111, and I have a door and 3 windows on
that wall. I replaced the door with a pre-hung Stanley metal exterior
door 3 years ago. It was pre-primed. I painted the door and jambs
and all the window trim with high quality exterior paint. Its all
gone, peeled off and disintegrated, down to bare wood. THe paint on
the T-111 is looking pretty bad too.

Any suggestions as to wood preservative, primer, paint, &tc. to use
that will last?

Thanks a heap,
