Painting Stucco & Repairing Cracks With Caulking & Elastomeric Paint
What happens here
For cracks too large for the elastomeric paint alone to bridge, apply caulk. Use a caulking gun to apply a bead of caulk (Sherwin Williams 950A or Big Stretch) directly into the crack. Immediately after applying, use a gloved hand to dab and blend the caulk into the surrounding stucco texture. This creates a rough texture that mimics the stucco, making the repair less noticeable after painting.
Goal: Fill and blend larger stucco cracks with caulk to prepare for painting.
