    Is my Stucco guy Screwed Up?

    I have read online that Stucco (non-acrylic) can come out a VERY different shade than what you see on the color sheet. I wanted Acrylic, but he said that it would not adhere well to an older (painted home). So we went with regular stucco. The color I chose was BMI Sage Green. When the stucco...
