Stucco Textures

A variety of textures can be achieved with cementitious stucco depending on the size of aggregates used, the method of application, and the final use of float or trowel. These texture samples were photographed with a strong light placed high and to the right to simulate midday sunlight. Finished effects will vary somewhat depending on the applicator and orientation of the surface sun.
