Default Painting Stucco

I want to paint my house. It is stucco over the block. House is about
10 years old. My questions are these:

What is the best paint to use?

There are some hairline cracks, will the paint be thick enough to fill
them? If not, what do I use. They are about the same thickness as a
thumbnail.

TIA

As others have said elastrometric stucco paint but the best paint in
the world isnt going to do any good if the previous layers were less
than what you are appling now. As with most paint jobs preparation is
everything.. A good paint store is going to be the best source of
info. Local climate is also going to effect your paint selection here
again yourr local paint store is going to have the best info.
