Trex is a wood/plastic composite with the color in it. It's not a paint applied and none should be needed. Yeah it's rough but then again you won't slip on it like you will with painted wood.

I have to replace my storage shed and was going to build one. Not now after seeing the prices on wood and siding. The Home Depot near me has larger premade sheds that so far are reasonably priced. I'm looking at a 12x16 2 story with storage above on each end and a barn type roof for a bit over 4700 that sits on a metal frame work. It's delivered in sections and built on site.

Another place that sells Amish built sheds had one that was about the same but has a few extras and it sells for over 19,000. It's only 10x16 with the second story for storage with stairs. No way I'll spend that kind of money.... unless I have to live in it.
