Simulated Stucco

[sphelps]

Yeah getting a stucco guy out here to do such a small job isn't worth it, it'll cost twice as much as the rest of the material so I'll paint it flat before I do that.

I've been looking for paneling but can't find it anywhere, seen pictures online but no stores carry anything like it.

I found this:

Basically super thick paint that allows for a decent texture and hardens to a stone type feel. Should cost around a $1/sqft so not bad.

That doesn't look too bad, eh? Is it paintable though, or is that the color you want?

Tintable and I have a sample to bring in in hopes they can color match but if not they have a few stock colors that I think are pretty close. Worst case it is also paintable but planning to avoid that extra step and cost.

The only thing I would worry about with that product is that it's meant to go down on a flat surface, not vertical. I wonder if it would run?

Yeah I don't think it will work well vertical, I'm planning on building each wall first, laying flat to paint and then installing it on the foundation.

Deck restore worked out well so far, not going to be easy to get these things up but one step at a time. Hard to see the texture in the pic but it's decent and they matched house color perfectly.
