Probably the most typical ceiling covering plywood can be painted.
Most porch ceilings are covered at the least with plywood which is the perfect substrate for a high grade finish like beadboard.
However if for some reason the joists of your porch roof are exposed don t fret.
The nails must be long enough to penetrate at least inch into the porch ceiling.
The stuff i used was not strand board it was plywood laminate.
General contractor kevin kalman and carpenter bob ryley lay plywood to the soffit of the front porch ceiling.
Secure the j channel strips in place with galvanized steel nails and a nail gun or hammer.
You can either put up sheets of plywood first or if your joists run parallel to the house tack the beadboard right to them.
Leave a gap of 1 32 inch between the nail head and the siding to allow for expansion.

I think the grooved stuff would look great on the ceiling.
We recommend a quality exterior grade plywood be used as it is susceptible to moisture and will separate if wet over time.
Set a nail every 12 inches in the center of the nailing slot for proper security.
Your patio is the ideal place to spend leisurely hours with family and friends and a patio cover allows you to enjoy this outdoor room even more.
