Default Re: Painting Stucco exterior

We just paid a few bucks to have the stucco power washed. The guy said it was recommended that stucco be done once a year; siding twice a year.

The stucco color is in the stucco - not painted on. It should last longer than paint.
(recently read that the color coat stucco will maintain its color for as much as 40 years or more)

We had our summer house in Calif painted two years ago with Sherwin Williams Exterior paint guaranteed 25 years!
