Mr. Wizeguy over here in England we use Stihl with a water sprayer nozzle wetting the disc and keeping the dust level down, if dust is wet it can’t get airborne 😉👍👌

Kirk, I've spent the last month watching your videos. Thanks. I ran into a problem I don't think you have covered. I had to stop stuccoing in the middle of the scratch coat. I feathered the stucco out as best I could, but when I start again am I going to get a serious crack? Should I use a bonding adhesive?
Good afternoon, Kimberly, will you get a cold joint is a technical term, doubtful, Cold joints usually occur when you start and stop on the second coat, not the first coat. As a rule, it's best to start and finish wall to wall, but sometimes this is not always possible.

Kirk , this is Hillbilly from Kentucky , is it necessary to float out the stucco after you rod it? if you're going to Prime and put an elastomeric synthetic finish coat over the hard coat?
Good evening my hill buddy from Kentucky, yes, it's absolutely necessary, the darby has lines which don't match the original finnish.

Hi Mr. Kirk. I have 3 easy questions if possible asked. a)what type-kind of bonding agent you are using before the 3/1 stucco and time to go after that. b)anything else as agent to add in the mud e.g sb agent? and c)cannot find that brush here. Any link please?
Evening Dimitris, as a rule I prefer weld crete as a bonding agent, but many of the bonding agents sold at Home Depot or lowes are just as good.

Good afternoon, Yoav, I can look at a wall and tell if it's wavy or straight. However, I told the homeowner I would create a much better appearance than what he had before. This we did.

Thank you so much for teaching all of us! I saw that on other videos made by other creators they had used mesh tape. When do you use mesh tape and when do you don’t? Is it according to the size of the wall ?
We only use fiberglass mesh tape on new basecoats after about three weeks and before we apply a color finish.🥳
Skills dashing out of this video. nice work! question who's beer is that on the brick fence?

You can use diamond grinder if it has vacuum attachment but it seems to be quite uncommon in US.
Mr. Wizeguy over here in England we use Stihl with a water sprayer nozzle wetting the disc and keeping the dust level down, if dust is wet it can’t get airborne 😉👍👌
Greetings Wizeguy, these days I usually recommend Thor demolitions as they have high powered vacumes on their bosch bulldogs so no dust, which means I can plaster instead.
I have broken out stucco many times in the past and have never learned to like that nasty work.

Doing a few patches on my house thank you for sharing your videos very helpful. What is the bonding material called you use on painted surface so stucco adheres.?.
Howdy Kat, I use Larsons, "weld-Crete" but you can purchase "Quikrete" it's just as good if not better and its sold at HD or lowes, so I 'fd recommend theirs as larson's is only sold at plastering yards.🥂
@@StuccoPlastering thank you Kirk. Thank goodness I practiced on the side of the house first. After watching about 10 of your videos and learned why it's not sticking I think I finally got it . A little more practice with the Quickcrete 😁 b4 I tackle the front. Thanks again.

Hi Kirk, What’s your process for a stucco finish over durock? 👍 on the videos very informative keep up the good work!!
Morning Mike, apply plaster directly over it, mesh your joints with mesh for Durack, not for sheetrock. Applying a bonding agent helps too.

I just painted a stucco house right before I had caulked some cracks . Any ways what’s a good way to get rid of this cracks I patched
If your not happy with your caulking skills simple scrape the caulking out with a trowel or putty knife.🕵🏼
Kirk, I've spent the last month watching your videos. Thanks. I ran into a problem I don't think you have covered. I had to stop stuccoing in the middle of the scratch coat. I feathered the stucco out as best I could, but when I start again am I going to get a serious crack? Should I use a bonding adhesive?
Good afternoon, Kimberly, will you get a cold joint is a technical term, doubtful, Cold joints usually occur when you start and stop on the second coat, not the first coat.
As a rule, it's best to start and finish wall to wall, but sometimes this is not always possible.

Hey guys love your channel. I have a stucco guy he didn’t do a good job on making a even smooth brown coat. It is already cured. He says he can come over and do another light skim coat over top of it to make it smooth. Is this a bad idea? well this cause spider cracks?
Howdy, not if he knows what he doing.🍾
Hi kirk! Love the content ! Question, will a stucco repair cut in a straight line crack after the repair is finished ?
Howdy Vincent, as a rule, yes, cheers.😏

Kirk , this is Hillbilly from Kentucky , is it necessary to float out the stucco after you rod it? if you're going to Prime and put an elastomeric synthetic finish coat over the hard coat?
Good evening my hill buddy from Kentucky, yes, it's absolutely necessary, the darby has lines which don't match the original finnish.
The green sponge float brings out the sand which does math the existing finish.

Did you make the scraper for the hammer chisel or is sold at Home Depot or other hardware stores?
Howdy Juan, I buy them online or at HD.😉
Hi Mr. Kirk. I have 3 easy questions if possible asked. a)what type-kind of bonding agent you are using before the 3/1 stucco and time to go after that. b)anything else as agent to add in the mud e.g sb agent? and c)cannot find that brush here. Any link please?
Evening Dimitris, as a rule I prefer weld crete as a bonding agent, but many of the bonding agents sold at Home Depot or lowes are just as good. Below is a link for the best brush at the lowest cost.

Good job I have cuestion wy peoples used insolation and some thing more where I can buy the stuko and what is the name please thanks
Howdy Peter, the name of that system is called either Dry-Vit or Stow, t's just a styrofoam system with a thin layer of poly-bond over the foam plus often color finish too.
Goggle plastering yards near me for the nearest Westside building material yard.🍾
Mr Kirk what type of mud were you using there
Greetings Brian, regular portland cement plaster we added three parts sand to each part cement plaster.
For homeowners it would be easier to buy rapid set stucco, all you do is add water, don.t overmix more than 3 to 5 minutes.

Why are you wearing a black belt and what its called ?
Omar, my friend, thats good question brother, It's a back brace. People focus on it and don't realize I know nothing about stucco. 🤔🍾
Kirk. How do you know you didn't create a little bulge in the wall by patching it?
Is there a tip for knowing that just by looking at it perpendicular like you do?
Use a straight edge against the wall to see if its flush
Good afternoon, Yoav, I can look at a wall and tell if it's wavy or straight.
However, I told the homeowner I would create a much better appearance than what he had before. This we did.
Or, like the fella below said, I could use a straight edge or a ten-foot two by four.
