Masking to Spray on Stucco? Painting a Commercial Building Solo with an Inner Fed Roller!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

When faced with rough stucco and a drastic color change, re-evaluate the painting method. While an inner-feed roller makes back-rolling easier, using an airless sprayer alone for direct application to rough stucco can sometimes be more effective for achieving full coverage and proper adhesion, especially with a significant color shift. Direct spraying often allows for a heavier, more uniform coat that penetrates deep into the texture, and is generally faster. This decision prioritizes coverage and efficiency over the back-rolling benefit of the inner-feed roller for specific challenging surfaces.

Goal: Optimize paint application method for rough stucco and drastic color changes.

all right there you have it we're all done painting our commercial building stucco with an inner fender roller now the inner fed roller there's some challenges using the inner fed roller and uh the stucco itself because the stucco was extremely rough we're doing a drastic color change and um hey this is when you know you have the opportunity to change and um what i thought i was gonna do um necessarily was it what i decided to end up doing tomorrow we're gonna come back and we're gonna do some painting and we're gonna be using an airless sprayer and just spraying our stucco instead of using the inner fed roller and we'll discuss a little bit about that tomorrow and why we're changing so we're going to come back tomorrow do some high stuff
