1. Wash house with bleach/ detergent. Apply with pump sprayer, rinse low pressure with pressure washer. Let dry.
2. Scrape peeling paint.
3. Sand any high edges flush.
4. Dust off substrates.
5. Prime with a bonding primer like XIM.
6. Finish with 2 coats high quality waterborne paint like Benjamin Moore.

When I paint shingles I use a 4-6 " wizz roller. I can fly with one and end result is always great. Brush trim.
I hope this helps Jim. Any more questions just fire away.

good stuff right there.. if you don't do the prep, don't bother with the paint....and prep should take longer than painting.. and please.. let it dry good, before applying product..
