Short Description: Premium factory-primed exterior bevel siding crafted from architectural-grade Sugi (Japanese Cedar). Precision finger-jointed for dead-straight stability and pre-primed on all sides, ready for your exterior topcoat.

Product Overview: Upgrade exterior elevations with clean lines, natural weather resistance, and contractor-grade workability. Japanese Cedar (Sugi) is naturally rich in rot- and insect-resistant tannins, offering the trusted durability of traditional Western Red Cedar at a sharper price point.

Graded 'A' Clear and finger-jointed, each piece eliminates knots, wane, and crook—dramatically cutting down on job-site trimming and scrap. Factory primed on four sides to seal out moisture and provide optimal adhesion for standard exterior acrylic latex paints.
