I want to paint the exterior of some concrete block walls. I want to use a spray gun that can spray that textured stuff (rough look-clumps of sand ect...). There is no roof or windows on the house yet and I have not pushed the dirt up against the edge yet. Is now a good time to go ahead and paint or should I wait until the roof, windows, ect...are installed ?
Also can someone suggest a good user friendly name brand or type of sprayer for the type of painting Im wanting to do ? I would like for it to be electric powered instead of air. Lowes sells some sprayers ranging from around 70 to 100+ dollars but Im unfamiliar with theyre quality.
Thanks
That sounds great Square Eye. Exactly what I was thinking in terms of not having to mask everything off. I just didnt know if for some unforeseen reason it was a bad idea. I also like the idea of renting the sprayer for the job...at first. I then realized that I wouldnt know how long it would take me to finish the job and not to mention that I was thinking of using the same sprayer (I think I can do this ???) for spraying a textured type paint over the interior drywall to hide my bad spots if we decide not to use a wood interior. Whatcha think ?
Thanks
textured paint? you mean paint thickened up with mud? or are you talking a full on stucco type thing. I have never heard of an exterior paint that has sand in it that you could spray with painting equip. ????

Yes asbestos they have sprayer as described. I google searched some of them and they are pretty dang expensive. I think I like Square Eye's idea of "renting"
Thanks for the help
