Mask Areas and Apply Paint to Main Stucco Body

right. Today we're going to be talking about painting stucco. I have some stucco in front of me that um I'm going to be painting. I'm going to give you some tips and tricks, you know, painting stucco. And do start off with. I'll just talk about what I typically paint stucco with is flat paint. So, whatever I'm putting on the house is typically um you know, and I typically paint the house, the body of the house in satin, the trim is in satin, the doors are in satin. I'm using Emerald Rain Refresh. The um Rain Refresh has a little bit of a sheen to it, probably because um it's given it that ability to rain or water to wash off any dirt easily. You know, typically the paints I use are a little bit more flat, but this actually looks pretty dang cool. Um, if if you're using anything else, I like Benjamin Moore Aura, I would use flat. Uh, Bear Dynasty would be flat. Um, Sheran Williams Duration, it would be flat. Whatever I'd use. I always use a high-end paint.

It was gray and we went to green. And with a slight color change like that, you don't have to do anything elaborate spraying the Stuckco. If you're going and I'll just go from drastic black to white. There's an infinite number of um angles, ins and outs, nooks, crannies, crevices, pen holes that got to be, you know, painted at different angles uh spraying Stuckco. So, one thing I would highly suggest if you ever do paint stucco and the co the customer has a white house and they want black, that's extremely difficult to do. It's going to take three to four times more paint and sometimes you would have to back roll it. I always suggest painting, you know, someplace similar or close to what the stucco is existing. If you paint it the same color, it's going to look fresher and newer cuz the stucco does fade over time. It flattens out even more. um gets a chalky look to it. So, painting it the exact same color, it'll look amazing uh repainting it after even after say five years, six years. This Stuckco lends itself to being able to spray it just straight on and almost getting it covered 100%. Sometimes you got to spray it at a downward angle. Sometimes you got to spray…
