Find someone else - cedar shakes are very porous. Oil based stains are best as they soak into the wood. A product called "penetrol" can be used to establish the "oil" in the wood and keep it from drying out.
My Dad had good luck with a latex based paint made by Pratt & Lambert for outside use on shakes.
