When it comes to selecting the ideal paint for your homes stucco exterior, 100% acrylic latex paint consistently tops the list.
This type of paint offers excellent durability and flexibility, making it perfect for the unique needs of stucco exteriors.

Here’s why acrylic latex paint is a standout choice:

Breathability:
Stucco needs to breathe to prevent moisture buildup. Acrylic latex paint allows moisture to escape, reducing the risk of cracking.

Adhesion:
Superior adhesion properties ensure that the paint firmly sticks to the textured stucco, providing a long-lasting finish.

Weather Resistance:
This paint type withstands harsh weather conditions, maintaining its appearance through various seasons.

Surface Preparation:

Before painting, ensure the stucco exterior surface is clean and any damages are repaired. Proper preparation increases the paints effectiveness.

Finish Selection:

Decide on the type of finish that suits your aesthetic needs. Flat or matte finishes can hide imperfections, while eggshell or satin offer a slight sheen and are more durable.

Professional Advice:

It’s beneficial to seek recommendations from professionals or local paint stores, as they can provide insights based on regional climate conditions and specific needs of your property.

Beware of cheap paint at some of the big box stores. The strong Sedona and Cottonwood sunlight attacks the paint. Bargain paints do not enough solids in the paint so UV rays will degrade the surface allowing moisture and dirt to penetrate the stucco.

By choosing the right paint, you can enhance the beauty and longevity of your stucco exterior, ensuring it looks vibrant and well-maintained for years to come.
