Hi guys, Kirk and jay here with Kirk Giordano plastering, today what I'm going to show you
guys is how we apply this BMI 300 course acrylic finish. BMI makes a lot of a lot of products they
make a full line of acrylics, they make some in cementitious color coats, they make this 690 BMI plaster
coat, they make all kinds of things, while we're at that. Let me throw a bone out to, "Jerry Pozzo,"
Jerry Pozzo is their consultant, he's he has all the questions for any, or all the answers for any
questions any of you guys might have. I'll give you his, telephone number, so you're not calling
ole Kirk, I'm an applicator and I do have the answer to many of your questions. But he's a
technical specifications consultant, so that's telephone number is area code five 308 eighty
five six eight to eight, Jerry Pozzo. He's been with the company forever again guys what we're
doing is I'm applying a primer right now and you know say well I apply a primer if you're going
to go ahead and color coat it with an acrylic has its own specific primer, and whatever a primer
they recommend or whatever product you choose for you our acrylic, you're gonna have to use
that primer, otherwise it voids the warranty. And you don't want to do that guys so before
we do the actual application of this acrylic the finish we're gonna use the hawk and trowel and
float I'm gonna be floating behind a couple guys and spreading, often we have to do this
and guys, always have a handy dandy brush for the corners like so this way you can get in there get
your corners done by the way guys this is the job we're doing here it's all had an issue with
all these decks all the decks around here they call Michael Craig construction. He's from San
Diego, we're in Oakland, you've got to be pretty good if they call you all the way from another
city, what a San Diego about nine hours from here so Michael Craig constructions, one who
originally hired the fella and the contractor to do all this cleanup work and put it all back
together this repair stuff and I'm helping out too anyhow we're gonna do some inter decks and
when we get to the inner deck I'll show you how we actually apply this particular material and
guys all acrylic primer products are not the same there are a couple I won't even spread
because over after 30 years and not happy with their performance this particular product the
BMI it won't spider check it won't discolor if it rains a day later it's not gonna wash it author
so many if and or buts about it but again call Jarry for all that technical stuff. we'll show you
in about five well you'll see it instantly we're going to decks that were we are doing the exact
same thing I'm doing here except there's other fellas doing it and as soon as Jason and I get
over there and start spreading alright guys as I said and is Andy's putting it on a couple other
fellows putting it on and I'm blowing behind what I'll generally do is green sponge float and this
material if it's it's an acrylic so these acrylics you really got to know what you're doing and what
you do is use a little bit of water feather into the existing come that way I'm feathering into the
existing feathering into the existing just like that Andy's spread it and when this dries it'll
blend it in close to color but again they're they're painting this whole thing anyhow does
it the color here is not so so important the the texture uniformity is is what they're looking for
we're able to do that. We've done this before a few times back to start the second time
we think I think we got it by now here we go I come on down go ahead keep spreading
first, he's got an easy job, that's why I like you. I feel like the service such as
life may get used to it that's because you got to be a technician to do what
I'm doing here any monkey can spread it, so they got a banana in his pocket too
okay, he's spreading it. I'm coming. I had to put a little bit of water on here and what I'll
do is I'll take my door I'll clean that door because when I pull this tape I don't want it
when I pull this tape here I don't want to pull a bunch of holidays when it dries so
first thing I do is clean that door, and there's got to be enough water in here do
that feather into it got it into the existing you take it from here feather into it now I'm
done with the water on this on this float here it doesn't if I do it any more it will start to
drag you see that is starting to drag so I don't want it to start to drag my bucket of
waters way over here get my way guys okay I just got some new water here and again I'll
clean my tape once more lift my float clean it and then take it from here and drag it
into the existing take the new drag it into the existing, yeah and that's what we're going to
be doing for about eight hours today we have Oh 20 decks Andy you better get used to it
I couldn't stand this, fortunately, hey guys, I'm cleaning the bottom of this blown cleaning
the top in the top here, and if your let's see, do that taking sideways what I like to
do is I like to keep my drip screen clean to pull it here and now my float is accumulated
too much material now. Hence, it's time to dip it into the water again. We're just giving you
an idea of how to use some of these acrylic products. They are a lot more difficult than
cement products. Cement tissue products are ways compared to acrylics. Still,
acrylics do have extreme advantages anyhow, guys. That's just a quick show of how what
we're doing these guys are going to get away from me, so I better stop yammering and get busy. My
name is Kirk Jason on the camera working with Andy Davis David stucco. He's pretty
good as usual we thank you for watching it. We'll see you guys at the next one.
