Just wanted to know what type of nails most of you pros use for nailing exterior trim, fascia and soffit. This is for pine or cedar. I know you need galvanized, but do most of you use casing or finish and countersink and putty or just set flush. Do you use pnuematic finish nails for a lot of these areas. What’s the best for these areas. Thanks.
