I am painting a 1930's ex-council house. I am sure it has been stripped and
re-pebbled a few times. I am dealing with old pebbledash on the main house
and new-ish pebble on some of the extensions. The house has not been painted
for at least 10 years--maybe more. What I really need to know is -- What is
the best brush to use. I've gone through all of my brushes/rollers and still
feel as though there is a better way. I am looking for anyone's "best brush"
recommendation before I go up the ladder to do the hard parts. Thanks All.

For something as rough as pebbledash, maybe spraying might be easier...



I used a long haired roller, but also with a bit of a stippling action
to work the paint in well
