Default Trellis design/material

I'm in the process of designing a trellis that will sit over my twin garage
doors.
The supporting frame will be fir, but in order to save weight I'm
considering the use of cedar for the upper,
"trim" portion.
My question: will cedar hold paint as well as fir, and if so, oil or latex?
TIA
