i'm looking for a natural (nude/beige hue) stone plaster look for my exterior. it needs to look taditional, not modern, so one that does not need a buffed shine to be sealed. we live in arizona. it will be accented with used red brick. anyone know of a good exterior plaster that an average joe without an account at any suppliers can get?

I want to do something similar on my front porch wall, making it look like stonework. I thought about using stucco mix, but wasn't sure about the color since I want to mix grey, mustard, beige and brown streaks in.

Have you considered stucco? I'm in Virginia and it is NOT common around here. I have grown kids in AZ, so I know what you're dealing with there.
