How We Protect our Cedar Lantern Posts and Mailbox Posts: The Primer

We use ProMar Exterior Latex Solid Color Primer because it delivers excellent adhesion, uniform coverage, and long-lasting protection. It seals porous surfaces, blocks stains, and creates a smooth foundation that enhances the durability and finish of topcoats.

We recommend using Sherwin Williams "Duration Collection" to protection your New England Woodworks cedar products

Sherwin-Williams Duration® paints combine beauty and toughness in one formula. With advanced moisture resistance, scuff protection, and fade-resistant color, they deliver lasting performance for both interiors and exteriors—perfect for homeowners seeking reliability and elegance in every brushstroke.

"Nominal size" used for lumber dimensions

The approximate or roughcut dimension by which lumber is called and sold in trade, but which differs from the actual dimension. Example: a finished (dressed) 'two by four' piece is less than 2 inches thick and less than 4 inches wide. 2x4 is the "nominal size".
