Tips on what equipment to use to apply paint to outside villa walls?
I have used a roller and watered down the exterior paint to make it easier to apply but still there are areas within the spritz where the paint has not reached.
I used a brush in corners and dabbed the weathershield paint into the wall but once dried, I could see that the paint had not gone in deeply.

What do you use? is there a special roller? spraying would be better of course but i prefer the roller method if it works.

Good morning

I have painted a few spritz finish villas and usually regret taking them on halfway through!
I usually use a deep pile roller, water the first coat down by 10% and work the paint in, it’s hard work to get an even coat on. If the spritz isn’t too rough and has previously been painted 2 coats should be enough.
