I have a garage with T-111 siding. It does not match the clapboard siding of the main house. The T-111 is in really good shape The big problem is that its just ugly and doesn’t match the house. I hate the idea of ripping it off to reside with claps. I like the idea of bord and batten siding. I was thinking of adding something over the recesses in the T 111 to simulate the b&b siding. Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks.

add something over the reccesses in the T111....
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
Cover the grooves to give you a B&B look, although, isn't T111 a bit roughsawn for that?
No need to tear off in order to clap. Go right over it.
