A horrible job from memory, especially as the 'pebbles' are huge, and need a brush not roller to cover. No choice though as was previously painted. Re ad somewhere that brushing on a thin coat of cement wash first helps - migh t it smooth the surface a bit, or is that just to prime the surface? The pe bbles are well stuck on in any case.
Spray it.

Better: let the paint fall off.

Odd the way that some bits will fall off quickly, but others last forever?
+2 You can hire the proper gravity feed gun and compressor for use with masonry paint -

Like Tabb's idea but going to go ahead with a brush as it is a fairly small area - just the back elevation - done most with great effort a few years a go. Next time around will go for the gravity gun and compressor. Thanks all suggestions. Peter
