"Some spray stucco first, and then after it dries, run masking paper a foot down and carefully spray the eaves" -that is exactly how we usually do it. As for the price I think it was right around $4500 but not sure as it was done a while ago.

not elastomeric. regular paint.

Question: “What a good job I congratulate you, good tip, the use of elastomatic, I will try it, a question, use FLAT tips or use RAC or REGULAR in the image as I saw flat, I want to minimize the overspray in my work” Answer: Overspray is the same. We use flat tips because they cost only $3 and we buy brand new tip for every job. It gives us nice spray pattern every time. The only downside I that the paint needs to be strained really well or the tip will get clogged up often.

El flat hace menos overspray dura mas el tip , pero tienes que colar la pintura .

Sorry could not tell you. Never painted in a cold climate.

We do not use any detergents for pressure washing. There are a few benefits of not using any detergents: Plain water does not kill grass/plants. No need to worry that if detergent is not rinsed off properly the paint will peel/bubble/flake a few months after painting. If we ever need to use detergent it would be “Liquid TSP Substitute” but usually for pressure washing we use only water.

we do not back roll if the stucco has been painted before. We only back roll brand new stucco. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GekKVCeswDA.html

elastomeric patch www.homedepot.com/p/SHUR-STIK-1-qt-Permanent-Patch-101-8811-3-16/301337782

for 2 coats of paint we usually use about 1 gallon for 100 sf. This house looks like about 4500 sf so about 45-50 gallons.

that is a regular masker with a blade for plastic. www.homedepot.com/p/3M-Hand-Masker-Dispenser-M3000/100089687

Elatomeric patch is thicker consistency and it makes it easier to apply. It does not drip from the brush, as drylock would. And it also seem to dry harder than drylock. But that is just personal preference. We used drylock for years before we started using elatomeric patch around foundation and it worked just fine.

I don't remember how much paint it took for this specific house, but whenever we need to calculate the paint for exterior house painting we usually buy 1 gallon for 100 square feet. If it is 2000 sf house we would buy 20 gallons and that is for 2 costs of paint.

between 2 guys about 5 full days.

yes

consider how much repairs needed, how many colors and where they go, how far to drive from where i live, plus the square footage.

it was many years ago i think about 35-40 gallons for paint . price varies with each project.

Is there a specific reason you are thinking of using anything other than flat paint?

Someone told me it is easier to clean.

As far as easy to clean I am not sure if it would help much on stucco. We use satin finish for exterior doors sometimes and it does make it easier to clean. On stucco we only use flat paints, as any kind of repairs that you are going to make before painting (fixing any cracks or holes) will show a lot better with paints that have gloss. If the house needs no repairs it still may highlight all existing imperfections on exterior. Besides looks another important reason not to use glossy paint is it may trap moisture and the paint may not adhere well. With flat paint it is never a problem.

In Arizona the paint does not usually last that long without fading. Spartashiled by Dunn Edwards is one of the paints we suggest using for someone looking for the longest lasting results.

What is the life expectancy of that paint?

You should expect to repaint the house on average in about 10 years if you are using Spartashiled. It is not only the quality of the paint. A lot depends on the colors that you are using as well. Neutral/light colors will last longer without fading. Dark/rich colors will fade faster.

Thanks for the reply

With ‘5 size the fan is 10 inch wide and it does allow for spray painting body faster but it is a harder to paint under the trim with fan being that wide. Stucco on this house is smooth and the 13 size works great. There is nothing wrong with using 5/15 tip but on most jobs 4/13 is what we use. It is a little slower than with larger tip but more precise.

@@ABNPainting That's a blown out 413 for sure

This video was posted about 6 years ago and i do not remember what we charged at the time. Sorry.

Eduardo Nava :"it is easier to remove the lamps" It is easy to remove but time consuming to put back.
