Most of the discoloration is absorbed into the stucco. I’m thinking if I sprayed it with acid it’ll dissolve the efflorescence leaving acid etching and brush marks from a soft wire brush on the stucco surface. But if I don’t use acid I’ll have to brush harder leaving brush marks.
Of course I’ll have to do some tests.  But I’m hoping for some more ideas beyond my own.
As you can see from the pics because of the smooth but rough texture with a solid color what ever I do, you’ll probably see it from a mile away...
Whatever I do they’re probably going to have to coat over it and if that’s the case maybe it won’t matter if I use acid or not.
