Default paint for exterior wood

Hi everyone. Thanks for your replies you've all been very helpful.
The reason I was looking for a paint and not a woodstain for the shed is
partly because the colour it is now is such a bright red (that was a wood
stain) that a wood stain will not look as it should. I tried putting green
on before and it didn't look slightly green just a nasty kind of browny
colour.



What kind of wood is the shed made of? Some woods should not be
painted--cedar and redwood, for example. Paint will not adhere to
them properly.

Staining is the only alternative.
