Hello folks, kirk, and Jason are here with kirk giordano plastering. today we're going to do today is
we're going to install some Tyvek stucco wrap. I'll show you how we do it. We got to
keep in mind we've unrolled thousands of rolls of jumbo-tex this stuff here it's like an accordion,
so jay's gonna help me uh put it on the right i'm gonna come around this corner here and um
just pop a couple staples in and the idea is to roll this out and don't stretch it this way
or the other way now what i'm going to do is we're putting it on the screen
i'm going to put one-two sometimes these guys don't want to come outright.
up a little bit
The idea is, you know, we don't really want to stretch this stuff.
We want to just to lay gently because it's made for uh to weep water
when we put the other ones o,n and generally we go every 18 inches with this with these i just
remember it as four i'm putting four staples in it one two three every just like that.
so when we get to the next level, I'll show you that too
All right, guys, let me show you how what uh Tyvek recommends. They recommend six to twelve
inches overlapping the other, and as i said earlier, uh, this stuff has a tendency to wanna
stretch like an accordion, so what i'm going to do is i'm going to put a staple here and here.
And then jay will, you know, pull it somewhat straighten out for me this
stuff. Don't try to do this yourself, guys, because it is really tough. It just flexes
Everywhere let me see where we are. Guys it
i'm just looking at my staples down here
and we want to try to go a simple way is four in each one
And sometimes these guns jam up, but they're pretty simple to fix if they do
anyway. There we go
okay, you wanna okay now, jay what he's gonna do is he's gonna put the Tyvek tape now
man, come on like
we got a piece of steel
Out of staples, snap out of it, okay? Now notice jay's putting that tape there. The whole thing
has got to be airtight technically, and because we have a parapet here, we're going to put one more
layer. The next layer will come over this about afoot here, and then we're going to wrap it around
the parapet cap. We're supposed to get a lot of rain in the next couple of days,
so we're trying to help the homeowner out and get everything watertight for them,
so when we get to that last one, we'll show you that too.
okay, guys, we're gonna wrap this up here, um,
and if you guys got any technical questions about this particular product
Called mark Silvera. He's a Tyvek seniors specialist.
He knows everything about this particular product um i don't have his number on me but
When on the written description of this video, I'll put mark's number because, again, he is
their senior uh tech guy. He does any questions you have, he'll know how to answer them i just
put this stuff up i don't i'm not an engineer, don't try to be, but i am an applicator anyway,
jason and i thank you for watching and as usual, guys we'll see on the next one.
