Usually a wooden shed is made of rebate parts or impregnated wood.

With both systems it is important that you paint with a paint that regulates moisture.
After all, the moisture must be able to get out.
Stains are also moisture-regulating and you can also use them for a wooden shed.

In addition, you can use a 1 pot system or also called EPS.
This paint system is also extremely suitable for this.
If you want to know more about EPS, read the article about EPS here.
When you start painting, it is also important that you also treat the inside.
After all, it is also damp there and the central heating does not burn.
Of course, you also need to make good preparations here to get a good result.
So first degrease and then sand and only then paint.
If you want to keep seeing the grain, you should not use coarse sandpaper.
You will see the scratches later.
Use 240 grit or higher sandpaper.
Alternatively, you can also use a scotch brite.
This is a sponge with a very fine structure that prevents scratches during sanding.

Which color you want is always personal.
There are a variety of products for sale in stores and on the internet for painting a wooden shed.
