Stucco Paint – Acrylic or Elastomeric?

jackofalltrades777 | Posted in General Questions on

What is the best paint to use on exterior stucco. Located in the desert southwest and it is an ICF house with a fiber-reinforced conventional stucco.

Some say acrylic and others say elastomeric. The later being thicker and better for resisting moisture/rain. Elastomeric can also bridge small cracks and gaps.

Any brand name recommendations? Home Depot Behr, Sherwin Williams, etc?
