    How to clean and paint exterior stucco
    Hello. The front of my stucco home needs painting. It's in pretty good shape. Some very small hairline cracks, but nothing that needs repair. How do I go about cleaning and then painting the home?

    I've read about a product - elastomeric - that helps seal the hairline cracks. Anyone used this, or have recommendations on paint brands to use? How do I clean the house without damaging the stucco?

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    To clean use power washer with medium nozzle. U can get cleaning agent in any big box store. Follow directions.

    Have never used paint u listed. But any good quality stucco paint should work fine. Maybe someone else has used it.

    Good luck
