Warranty wise you are better off to have the factory finish. IF you have a issue, they will say it is the paint or the way it is applied or whatever. Hardie did have some problems with painting and delaminating which they now say they have fixed. Cemplank I believe was the original but I think was bought out by Hardie.
We prefer the Certainteed. It has been wonderful for us. We had ours pertained.
