question for all the painter/decorators on here!

Want to change to pebbledash on outside,thought of cladding but lot of hassle/work, so thinking of painting with Sandtex? do I need a stabilizer first?


did have warrior, but crossed over to disco 2.
Thought I could see light at the end of the tunnel, but it was somebody with a torch bringing more work!

That stuff is pretty good as long as the surface is flake free and clean you should be ok. No mildew or damp spots. oh and make sure you do it on a dry day with the temperature above 10 deg
