Default Preparing exterior walls for painting

Here I got paint falling off, dirt and welded-on plant growth on the
wall. Screwfix stabiliser is £22 a gallon, and they got several types
of masonry paint, including one at 18 a gallon that says it does its
own stabilising as well. Would that be the one to go for?

BTW I did some painting last year with their £11 water based masonry
paint, and its already falling off. It was a real quickie job and I
did minimum prep.

Any gurulike advice appreciated.


Pliolite masonry paints stick like **** to a blanket.


Right ta - thats the one I was looking at. Looks like fairly evil
stuff though fume wise. Am I going to turn people into walking zombies
with this stuff?
