Howdy Wayne Frazier, most of the cement plasters (Also called stucco in the U.S. and Render in the UK) these day have lime added anyways or what they call a plastic additive, similar for spreadability? Lime makes the cement plaster spread a bit better and add permeability, .bit is it necessary? I buy Lehigh's portland cement plaster as it has common for strength and plastic added spreadability. No lime is needed with plastic cement because it is complete as formulated. FYI, the hydraulic portland plasters that are same day, applications that are so popular in Home Depot and or Lowes even have sand, you just add water. Rapid set, Quikrete, sakrete, makes these same day back to back products. For the BMI, reinforced fiber mesh same day cement products you have to go to sikaflex web site, they sell this material in silos and bags that a fella can mix with their machine. Opps, too much info, got carried away. Best wishes, kirk giordano

Morning Ass Dude, as a rule, we like perfect mud. however rather than send it back whether it's soupy or stiff, an experienced plasterer knows where to apply it. For example, if soupy mud gets to me, I look for an area either in the sun or just paper and apply it in a particular way so that the paper can and will absorb the excess moister. If I'm up scaffold I clench my fist tight that jester indicates to the hod carrier to stiffen it up. Kirk Giordano

This search may also bring up “yelp” Theirs is a paid subscription, so their reviews may be more biased than Google; however, you can scroll and read through the Yelp reviews. Hopefully, with the help of both reviews apps, you will find the best fit for your needs. If you’re still not sure, ask to view their completed jobs and or repairs and, if possible, speak directly with their past clients. Best wishes, Kirk Giordano Plastering Inc.

Morning Ciro, any cement plaster will work, the key is to make it really sticky. This can be achieved by adding half the sand as one would normally. And or by adding some fiberglass mesh into the sticky cement plaster. Fiberglass mesh comes in bags buy one once to many pounds. They are sold at the Plastering Material Yards. I am not referring to rolls of fiberglass mesh! I'd call around first or go to Amazon and type in Fiberglass mesh to add in cement plastering. If your mixed cement plaster is too soupy, it will fall through the mesh wire. If it's too thick, it can smash the metal netting. Copy and paste the link below into your browser to show the mesh I'm referring to. Bringing peace, love, and harmony back into the world of plastering.

Great video as always Kirk! One question- does anyone there use the expanded metal (i.e. Like Clark Dietrich 2.5 SF - looks like a diamond pattern), seems like everyone on the east coast is using that and no one uses the 17-18 ga rolled wire like you use (but everything you do still sticks to that and holds), maybe it's easier to use than the other and you're just more skilled and can use the 17 ga wire, or maybe more on the west coast do it that way? I swear I heard someone mention they only use the 27" sheets of diamond shaped lath for ceilings and rolled ('chicken wire' looking) wire for verticals. Anyways thanks so much for making so many great videos and giving such awesome tips and advice!!

This is just like plaster work. I'm not sure why I thought it'd be different.

Howdy my friend, cement stucco or as it's know in some countries cement plaster is applied like interior plaster, the only difference is we don't need a scratcher for interior plastering.💃

Hey Kirk, great videos. Can you give some more details of your red scratcher? Did you just apply the red tape on it yourself or did u buy it that way? Plastering my 40x20 blockwork garage at the moment!

Is that a brick wall? If so, why did you put plastic on it and why did you net the wall with mesh?
@StuccoPlastering

Howdy Tony, no it was wood underneath, as there's is no way to apply paper over bricks. FYI, we don't use mesh for bricks we pressure wash apply a bonding agent then plaster them when asked to do so. Live long and plaster Teaching plastering video’s

I was just going to ask the same question. I've seen you do a lot of s/c renders over wood, is that common in the US ? I can't believe any wood structure would last more than a few years without rotting or crumbling under all that plastic and stucco. How long would you expect that wall to remain intact ? In Ireland the water and mold would rot that underneath the stucco in a couple of years.

Evening Eameh Eameh, man, I quit all sugar and meat for the last year, my weight dropped down to a hundred and nothing soaking wet, Because of this weight and strength drop I just started taking super foods as well as fermenting lots of our foods these days. Our super foods are Go Jee berri "organic" High in HGH and improves vision, what man does not want more HGH, especially who over 50, I also take Cocao, the food of the gods, the real stuff is from South america high in magnesium possibly the highest of any food on the planet, a serious anti oxidant, Plus, Macao root is so strong that men of the past ate a bunch prior to battle, but after they succeeded in conquering for lack of a better word, would have to wean off, as the the emperor's said no more Maco Root as they were too aggressive with their wives and or honey's as it's a really strong aphrodisiac too. Honey, I just started again last week as my pal has bee's, all organic, if it's heated so it can poured, the enzymes are destroyed making it useless, and a whole list of other supplements as I have some serious blood issues, but nothing I can't handle. Has all this stuff made a difference, yea, but you have to approach it slow, as it's the real deal, meaning it's so strong it can kick your ass if too much is taken, we are still in the learning stage. Thanks again for the tip and best wishes my friend. kirk Giordano plastering
