How To Prep & Paint Stucco. Painting Stucco With A Paint Sprayer.
What happens here
Before painting, cover all windows, doors, light fixtures, and other areas that should not receive paint using masking tape, plastic sheeting, or painter's paper. This protects surfaces from overspray. Set up your paint sprayer with a 515 Graco Rax-X tip and a 2-foot extension wand. Ensure your roller frame is fitted with a 3/8-inch nap roller cover. For painting along the ground or areas that require a clean edge, prepare a cardboard shield and a shield holder.
Goal: Protect unpainted surfaces and set up painting tools.
