Rough finish on gable wall

    Question about problem while getting the exterior of the house painted. The front and back of the house are fine but the gable end has the rough finish pictured


    Background: Just bought house and looks like first painting since ‘06. Looks like builder painted with no seal as paint peeling from poor/powery base. It’s been treated for mold/algae left then power washed before starting the paint. Stabiliser used in paint (weathershield).

    The lower part in pics had two coats and I’m reluctant to continue with the finish I’m getting. I don’t think another two coats will do anything except leave a well painted but still very visible/rough gable end - ruining the overall job.

    Wonder what the community recommends?
