Hi there folks, what we have is the Tyvek is below the lath
on top of the Tyvek there's eight-inch window wrap then the lath is placed over that then the
wood is placed on there using two by sixes we are putting two more layers of paper on the sides just
for the heck of it, and then we're going to caulk in those sides better too much than not enough
so this is about i won't need any more uh exposure as far as how to do the paper always remember
better to do way more than you need than not enough
there we have it we're ready for our last inspection
All these windows and doors are done. My son is working on the very last one
there he is, and we're just cleaning up, and we're out of here.
all right, folks, we are at a stage now the top to last, so we scratched it the other day and
now what we're doing is we're browning it, and i'm flirting in the finish now to float in the finish,
you just take a green sponge float like this, and you just float this in the plastering industry is
well separates the beginners from the guys who've been doing it a long time
because when they if they were to paint it these patches there are 20 windows on the top
so you don't want them to show i give them the option where we could blend in all the finishes
and they can prime and paint or we blend in all the finishes and we can come and do pressure wash
bonding agent and a color code float finish over the top of this so this joint surely doesn't show
turns out the price for a color coat was much cheaper than the paint job so
what we're going to do today is brown out all the rest of these windows
pressure wash and color code all these so for sure you don't see the joints around these windows, but
again we're pretty good where you don't see them in the house, but i always give folks the option
hello there folks today what we're doing is a color code finish over a painted surface, and then
they have all new windows we were here a while back, and they did about 22 windows what I'd like
to show you folks is the bonding agent somewhat of a boring story, but this must be called weld
creep it's blue specifically engineered so that a porous color code will adhere to a painted surface
zoom in over here so you can see this wall a little bit this is painted and this is porous
we did a scratching brown here so you see the blue heavy right here because i'm putting
two to three sometimes four coats onto the porous finish because i want the porous finish to be
able to have the same suction as this painted surface so the painted surface we only hit it
once with the bonding agent the porous surface i'll hit it enough time so that it kills all the
suction here that way when we apply the next color coat finish it's the same porousness or the same
sealed we want it sealed equally because if we do not seal this evenly what will happen is the
color coat will be on here and if it's different suction then the color and the texture will be
different here so we want to again let's stress this a lot of times because it's pretty important
the suction's got to be similar to here almost identical so we're doing all the windows here
in this little courtyard and we're doing the rest of the house today what we did was we finished the
pressure washing and now the bonding agent this is it's kind of a slow, tedious thing, but it's
it's necessary tomorrow you'll see us applying the color code and when the color code dries the
texture from here sealed to this porous finish has got to be the same as well as the colors that's
why this bonding agent is so important i use weld crete and if you try to cut a corner such as some
of the bonding even say so you can put it in the mixer don't try it because it'll come off in
sheets we apply it directly to the house there are no shortcuts to this anyhow tomorrow you'll see
the texture being placed over here and i hope that stresses the importance of this bonding agent you
see us here of course spreading this out because of all the bushes it's a real drag to get scalp
in the mouth but as as everything begins to dry towards the end of the day we'll go back and we'll
video why it's so important to have this dark blue over the new work and the lighter blue here
you'll see when it dries it all blends in really well so we're still a little ways away from that
all right guys the conclusion to the color code you notice any patcher on this window
good you're not supposed to notice a patch one and the bonding agent is done right
anyway 22 windows around the whole house this is about the only wall that's dry right now we're
getting ready to get out of here so uh in order to illustrate what i was talking about and to
stress the importance of the bonding agent i know this was pretty stressful as far as stressing the
bonding agent how important it is but there's the conclusion a nice uniform wall all right
folks, there you have it, kirk with kirk giordano plastering, we thank you for watching, and we'll see you at the next one. Thank you.
