I'm doing this right now ,3bed house ,side wall only ,sandtex smooth paint. Some of You may try to hire a compressor but it want cover these tiny holes between pebbles, paint will stick on top of stones only even after second coat and i think You will use more paint that way than using a masonry brush which will allow You to do the job with one coat ! Just make sure You hit the wall really hard with brush just like that guy and generous amount of paint otherwise You will (again) not be able to cover these tiny holes ! So do it once but generously and stop if You feel tired and start again after breake. The roller was not helpful for me at all ,maybe will be for someone to put a second coat but definitely will not do the job with the first one. If You are afraid of heights don't start ,hire somebody. Do a test and borrow a ladder just to check Your heights acceptance level by climbing on very top part of Your wall. If You are not able to do so ,dont start Yourself. Wall Preparation is important ,use sandtex fungicide then sandtex stabilise solution (primer) in dry conditions, means summer ! But before all this i recomend to cut all this dirt and algae with a pressure washer ,fungicide will not remove bigger ones ! Otherwise You will have to wait ages untill fungicide will kill algae roots. So fungicide is really good AFTER pressure washing, prevent algae back ,not really as a algae "rapid remover" which will be perfectly done by pressure washer. All You do just remember ,this job will test Your patience cos attention for details is essential here ! This is not a quick job as You may se on one of the Wagner spray gun video (they left a loads of uncovered holes which is hardly visible on the video. Good luck.
Thanks for the tutorial, we have a pebble dashed house but it's not roughcast like what you were painting. It has a lime render and the chippings thrown on after. The chippings can come off easily. How do you recommend painting this without losing too much of the chippings? Is it worth applying a slurry coat first to help bond the chippings before using a paint roller? Really appreciate your advice, thankd
What's the best way to remove shedding paint on a pebble dash wall before going painting it?....i think you said sugar soap....but i'm still not sure how to use that...never heard of it tbh.......a Galway man
Oh god I started this with a normal brush and quickly realised the hell it would be, does the masonry roller make much of a difference uuugh or is my wall destined to be unfinished forever????
lol I'm a painter and this guy made to look easy on the video for viewers, guys this is a tedious stressful job to paint this kind of stucco a house will take you several days to complete it, and if you do it your self it will look like shit I'll charge at list 5 dollars a squares surface ft or or w ill spray it but it wont look good because it has to many pores and holes.
You obviously don't know what you're doing then. I painted my house in 3 days straight, piece of piss, and it was a rougher pebble dash than this guys house.
i did my four bed bungalow last year the way he said, easy, balls its long and tireing, took me 8 full days, my tip is try and borrow some type of platform for the gable ends, i used a large extension pole but its hard to get any force on the roller to get the paint in the holes
Not as easy as he makes it look. You'll end up dabbing more than anything and when theres more than one floor to deal with and sides you soon get pretty pee'ed off. Rollers don't cut it either. I bought a airless spray gun. Double front room bungalow in 2 half days complete, large pebble dash. (mask and cover 3 days) Saturated the walls twice and layed off with a brush. Not sure the size of the place but did use a little over 40 litres of weathershield.
Thanks for the good vid. Just wanted to ask if or not it's a good idea to paint in the winter months. Obviously I want a dry day but I'm thinking about how much longer it might take to dry in the cold etc. Any tips or advice for that or is it just a bad idea all together? Is there a minimum temperature it's still ok to paint in? Thanks in advance.
Easy?! LOL. Even with the proper big heavy pile masonry rollers this is a very physical job. You need to have the roller absolutely loaded with paint and put a fair bit of oomph behind it to get the paint out and onto the roughcast. It's taking me a day per wall of my house (2 floors) and that's not counting the edging work leading to the rollering. Good video otherwise.
Must be a nightmare going up on a ladder doing that! I want to do this, but I'm crap with ladders. Expensive to have done professionally though. Must feel good thought!
@@Anticitizen2501 yeah it was tough and scary all at the same time. I’ve promised myself I’m not doing the job again but if I ever had to go to apex height again for any job I would get scaffolding put up. Much safer.

Not sure about starting at the bottom.. always taught to work down. Anyway, what about tyrolean walls ??

Hi I'm going to paint the outside of my house it's a nap finish wat would be the best type of paint and roller to use, thanks

nice
Was a nightmare for me, the pebbles came away onto the roller, within 10 minutes the roller was a solid mass of pebbles.
Any advice to avoid this or how you get them out?
what is the colour of the paint you used? fab end result
Dulux Weathershield Olive Garden
Screenshot of the paint tub states Thatch colour .
Thanks
I love you Irish people ☘️
Well, no answers here from Woodies. You're on your own, but get somebody to hold your ladder.
Can this be done in damp and cold conditions?
You need to thin your paint well to get Into to that wall , probably take an eternity to paint that house using paint straight outa can!!

Just dab with a car sponge in a bucket get the job done so quick
What’s the call roller name ??
What about if you can't stand on ladders to be able to cut in along the roof line ????
??? What if? Then you can't... I suppose you get someone that can then?
Please help...my roller won't do the same as yours....it's not painting the wall properly ..
Fucking screaming here get a decent roller bet you're using a radiator one lmfao 😂😂😂
Always start at the top.
Not as easy as he makes it look. You'll end up dabbing more than anything and when theres more than one floor to deal with and sides you soon get pretty pee'ed off. Rollers don't cut it either.

What make of airless sparky gun did you use and I take it you thinned the paint right down
@@Bigcol22 i bought a bosch one from amazon, been watering down the sandtex about 40/60 to get a whitewash into the cracks
Apart from the paint and brush , everything else is an optional extra lol
Easier than you think . Er no . Night mare job . Roller doesn't get in enough even long pile . Brush the l lot or higher a professional sprayer

The Sandtex smooth masonry paint I'm using says not to use under 8 degrees c.
Complete rendering of cement garden wall

That would take you weeks to do a 4 bed house
Use a compressor job done
no pebbledash wall in this video
Knackers way to paint 🤣
You funny mate
He should of done it in 2 coats but then he might end up sweating.
good boy
Ah potato... 😂😁👍
Or just spray it
Thin paint down ffs
tree fiddy
1. Where are your overalls 2.dont roll from the bottom up
Peddle dash walls are a piss poor excuse for craftsmanship. Cowboys made a quick quid and left many of English homes in a visual disgrace.
Perhaps but pebbledash is the best rendering for wet climates.
I love the Welsh accent
We're Irish ;-)
LMFAO!!!!!
Ffs🙄
😂😂😂😂😂
