A few quarter size pieces of our white stucco flaked away after an ice dam. What kind of paint is best for touch-up?Thanks

No matter what paint you use to touch up it will show as the older paint tends to darken with age. Use a primer first after you patch and then a ceiling paint. Ceiling paint is thicker than regular wall paint so that it stays on your roller/brush better and does not drip. Do not miss the primer application because the final coat will not cover properly and will still show.
