Has anyone had any experience with painting Tendura porch flooring? Around here(Central Kentucky) the paint stores never heard of Tendura. The manufacturer recommends a quality exterior latex or oil-base porch paint. I’ve had peeling problems with a oil-base porch paint on the previous wood porch, and don’t want to go through that again. Any recommendations would be helpful.

I recently (2 months ago) painted a new Tendura floor with a good quality exterior latex paint. The Tendura surface absorbed the paint well and it looks great. Time will tell how it holds up; but I can't imagine it peeling from that rough surface.
