How To Prep & Paint Stucco. Painting Stucco With A Paint Sprayer.

What happens here

The back-roller begins by loading their 3/8-inch nap roller with a substantial amount of paint, ensuring it is very wet. Immediately after, the sprayer starts applying paint to the stucco walls. The goal for the sprayer is to put on more paint than typically applied to siding, due to the stucco's porosity. The person back-rolling must stay very close to the sprayer because paint on stucco dries extremely fast. The back-roller works the fresh paint into the pores of the stucco, ensuring full coverage and a consistent finish.

Goal: This step demonstrates the coordinated effort of applying paint to stucco walls: the roller operator first loads the roller nap generously with paint, then the sprayer applies paint, followed immediately by the back-roller.

What they say

Hide

show you. We start off and we got a clean nap. We start off by loading up the map, getting it really wet with paint. So, I just spray the nap really wet. And now Eric's got a nap that's really wet with um paint. So, I'm going to start spraying the Stuckco. And Eric's going to be back rolling when I'm spraying the Stuckco. So, I'm going to try to load on more paint than I typically would on the siding of the house because the nap itself needs to be able to have paint to back roll into the floor. The person back rolling wants to stay pretty close to the sprayer cuz the paint on Stuckco dries extremely fast and he needs to have paint to actually back roll to push into the floor. So, keeping up with me spraying.
