I have a 25 year old Stucco house with many cracks all over. I have spoken to a couple of contractors. One wants to use Masonry paint. Is this the same as elastomeric paint or a kind of elastomeric paint? The contractor said the Masonry paint will seal the cracks (but not fix them).

Will this be good for stucco.

Another company insists I need to use products from a company called California Stucco. //www.californiastucco.net/Products.htm
