How to paint rendered exterior walls?

[MaxB]

Hi no painting experience. Looking to paint rendered exterior walls. 

Paint is Taubman's White Matt All Weather Exterior Paint. https://www.bunnings.com.au/taubmans-15l-white-matt-all-weather-exterior-paint_p0079403

Which paint brush and roller will be best for this job?

And I also plan to paint drain pipe also. Which brush should I use for this?

What are tools might for this job?

Thanks

Hi @MaxB,

A standard 12mm nap roller will work well for painting rendered exterior walls—it provides good coverage while still getting into the texture of the render. For cutting in around edges and painting the drainpipe, any standard quality paintbrush (around 50mm wide) will do the job just fine.

Other tools you might find handy include a paint tray, extension pole for your roller (especially for higher walls), masking tape for clean edges, drop sheets to protect surrounding areas, and a ladder if you need to reach higher spots.

Make sure to give the surface a good clean with Sugar Soap before starting and allow time for proper drying between coats. 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Can I use this to do edges and drainpipe: https://www.bunnings.com.au/monarch-50mm-cutting-in-and-framing-synthetic-paint-brush-50mm_p1660278

or a straight one: https://www.bunnings.com.au/pro-renovator-50mm-wall-paint-brush_p1661752

The first cutting in brush is fine for both @MaxB, it's just better for doing corners and cutting in at edges than on a flat surface; you can still use it though.
