Using pt for facia?Its really only good for decking as it really can't take any type of finish for at least a year after installation even when used as decking.You should be using redwood or cedar(or mahog$$$) for any type of exterior trim,back primed with an oil-based primer.You just don't(can't) use pt as it will not except paint.
But yea,stainless anything when dealing with pt as it is the "norm". |

just for the record I hate pt for decking .. it cracks .. water gets in the cracks,, freezes,, more cracks .. It might not rot ,but after a while it looks like a pile of splinters ..
