What happens here

Engage in a coordinated effort where one person sprays a generous amount of paint onto a section of the stucco wall. Immediately behind the sprayer, a second person uses the appropriate roller (9-inch for large areas, 4-inch for smaller) to back-roll the wet paint. This immediate back-rolling action is crucial to force the paint deep into the stucco's texture, pinholes, and hairline cracks before it begins to dry. Use a cardboard shield, attached to a shield holder, to prevent overspray onto adjacent masked areas and maintain clean lines. Ensure the shield holder is positioned correctly to deflect paint effectively.

Goal: Apply paint and work it into the stucco surface to fill cracks and ensure even coverage.

What they say

better finished product on the stucco. First up, I was actually just loading up the sprayer with or the actual roller with paint. Now, we're going to get going. And we're actually I'm not use we're always wear a mask, but we're not using masks once again because I'm trying to explain this process while we're videoing. See, he's using a shield to keep any overspray going off the side of the wall. And we just trying to limit the amount of overspray. We're using a cardboard shield holder and cardboard shield. You want to be you want to be right behind him actually back rolling quickly because the paint will start to dry and absorb into the stucco the concrete really fast. So the back roller's got to be right behind him. The guy spraying's got to put on a lot of paint to actually have it saturated and enough to actually back roll.
