About LaHabra 25 lb. Fog Coat Stucco Coating – X-81 Oatmeal

Oatmeal offers a clean, warm color without pushing too far into white or beige. It’s an ideal choice for homes that need a fresh, neutral update but want to retain that classic stucco charm. Instead of covering your surface with paint, which can peel or trap moisture, LaHabra Fog Coat bonds directly with the stucco for a finish that lasts.

This product is not your standard paint. It’s a dry, cement-based formula that, when mixed with water and applied with a sprayer, becomes part of the stucco itself. That means it won’t chip or flake away. It’s built for job sites dealing with uneven weathering, sun-fading, or patchwork repairs.

Whether you’re tackling a full exterior or just trying to touch up inconsistencies, X-81 Oatmeal provides a balanced, consistent finish that doesn’t fight with other design elements like brick, tile, or wood.

LaHabra provides a limited warranty on fog coat products used on properly prepared surfaces. The fog coat must be applied only to clean, unpainted, and unsealed stucco for the warranty to apply. Incorrect application, such as use on painted stucco, will void the warranty. Always refer to official LaHabra product documentation for full details.

LaHabra Fog Coat X-81 Oatmeal is a special order item and not typically available on store shelves. It must be ordered through authorized distributors. One 25 lb. bag provides coverage for 800 to 1,000 square feet depending on the surface texture.

Can I apply this over a painted stucco wall?

No. Fog Coat must only be used on unpainted and unsealed stucco. Paint prevents proper bonding.

How light is the Oatmeal color?

It’s a light neutral with beige undertones. Not as stark as white, but much lighter than typical tan tones.

Is a second coat really necessary?

Yes. While some areas may look good after one coat, two coats guarantee full, even coverage and better long-term color.

Will this change the texture of my stucco?

No. Since it’s a fog coat and not a thick finish, it keeps the original stucco texture visible.

Can this be used on interior walls?

No. This product is specifically designed for exterior stucco surfaces. It’s not recommended for indoor use.
