10/05/23 I'm doing a small project. Approximately 8 feet by 8 feet. I can't wait.2 to 4 weeks for the brown coat to cure, will it come out wrong. If I don't wait that long?
Hi nice video. Can you please explain why there's a need to do separate scratch and brown coats? Why can't you just place a 3/4" thick single coat? How much time must pass after the scratch coat is applied, before the brown coat is added?
Hi. The reason to sperate in two coats is because all mud, when it dries, it will shrink. The first coat will crack out the most. The second coat won't crack out as much. Hopefully by the third coat, otherwise known as the finish coat, you won't get anymore shrinkage and cracking. Furthermore, the first coat will tend to sag on the wire, as the paper doesn't have as much suction. You can really straighten everything out on the second coat which will have a high suction from the first coat to not sag as much
@Phazetic99 Thanks for the reply. Using conventional (but fiber-enriched) stucco, can the 2nd coat be applied as soon as the scratch coat is hard enough, or does the scratch coat have to cure? If so, what is the minimum cure time in approx 70 degree weather?
@@wildmanofborneo you can, and i have, but the wall tends to buckle when it does that. The way it is advised is to do a 3/8" thick scratch coat, let cure for 48 hours minimum and then a 3/8" brown coat. Let the brown coat cure for at least 7 to 10 days before applying the finish coat. You can let cure longer if you want. The longer the scratch coat sits the higher the suction for the brown coat. The longer the brown coat sit to cure, the less cracks you should get from new house settling, and going through weather changes, especially winter
Plz help. How would you go about covering an exterior fireplace about 17ft high and 3ft wide covered in flagstone. I would like to resurface in mortar. Ideas plz on how to go about it.

My question is, what is the mixture for the stucco, instead of buying the ready stucco
Great breakdown!! Any tutorials on applying smooth stucco over the brown coat??
Stucco Manufacturers Association (SMA) has one , Module 5
What is the finish coat made of? Same as the brown coat?
it is a great video, covers all points in time efficient manner. there is no sound though. if there is mellow music it is better.

who remembers...furring nails?
Is the brown coat a different material?
Why’s it called the brown coat?
From my research the scratch, brown and finish coat all have different mixtures of material. Can someone please confirm?
Wtf sound is free! You should try it.
Wheres the sound???
How can I do smooth stucco?
I see kirk
Where?
El papel negro se puede usar el de roofing también o no
El de el stucco es más barato vale como $9 el rollo se llama Jumbo-Tex y necesita 3 rollos por uno de tela alambre
el alambre puede ser chicken wire, o especial para stucco de calibre 20 o 17.
I can't do a silent movie. I came here to be informed, not to read 2 sentences about it.
