AIC Painting's Prep Work and Clean Up

One of the most important aspects of painting a stucco surface is careful prep work. This must be done to ensure your paint lasts. Our professional painters pay close attention to prep work to ensure the highest quality result.

Painting Your Stucco Interior and Exterior Surfaces

1. For exterior stucco walls, AIC Painting lightly power washes stucco surfaces of dirt and dust and gently scrubs away mildew with a stiff bristle brush. For interior walls, we may use a vacuum dusting attachment. If your walls have grease or grime or mildew build-up, we apply an appropriate cleaner. Depending on the weather and season in Tampa we may need to allow 24 to 48 hours for walls and surfaces to dry before patching or priming.
2. AIC Painting preps walls by fixing small cracks and dings with masonry caulk. Due to the weather in Tampa cracks on stucco walls larger than ⅛ inch-wide are common. For larger cracks, we remove any loose stucco with a putty knife and make repairs with a patching compound developed specifically for stucco.
3. Once the patching compound has dried, we prime stucco walls with a high-quality acrylic primer. In Tampa's climate, acrylic primers adhere better to uneven stucco surfaces. Using a large, napped roller we force primer into the stucco's deep nooks and crevices.
4. Lastly, we apply a flat paint interior or exterior paint. Painting stucco usually requires twice the amount of paint used for painting conventional siding.
