Hi guys Kirk here with Kirk Giordano plastering, I'm a ditch James three cooks one day what they
have here is a santa barbara smooth mission finish except they didn't roll it down then floated it
so I'm gonna scratch this nut brown it after it's sex enough same day I'm gonna go ahead and put on
follow up code on follow up code is going to be painted to match this existing finish I'll show
you how we texture nobody I don't care how good you are and mats this detection here with the
scratching brown coat because this is done it's a fine fine sand they're very fine you spread
it and then you float it that's what gives this texture here otherwise I'd be able to match you
with the to coach system so we are getting started here I'll play a team when we get to
the next page okay guys this is my second phone already I actually do a lot of multitasking when
I'm on a job there's a sad coat this is the second folks what I want to do is get you off
your brother and he's a large party and I'm doing nothing put a lot of pressure just get this wall
Good when I worked Union, it's all I get eight hours a day. They blew it on the houses, and all I
did was either scratch or brown eight hours a day for a couple years to get really good with these
things. Anyhow what I'm doing is I'm hitting the wall to a plug this wall strewed plumb, so that's
what I got to do now this rod helps me do that when I do it all on the ground this is my screen,
and that's my screen, so I pretty much know I'm doing it just like that Wow James doing the camera
gives me a chance to relax this is pretty easy stuff here, and then I'm going a hard rubber
closest when I'm done hard rubber float then, and we'll accept this third coat oh my god put
your second coat on this side now and again I do a lot of multitasking lot of two things at once
I don't want to put it doesn't matter how ugly this tote is because I'm gonna
barb you wanted full it doesn't have to be pretty I'll show you why it didn't have to
be finished there's one more scoop I'm still a little hollow here but
/ I'm hollow. I did a little bit more on it. The same thing applies right here.
I've gotta wear 20 minutes okay guys let's trick I'm going to show you this bar is browning what's
this I'm putting this on really thick oh that's so thick it's twice as thick as I needed because I
said a technique we used to use use without Union okay we'd be Union real bad not Nutley just like
that technique okay take the rod now rather than have it go over and over and take the pieces off
here just take it off not like some watch this okay back on the board now that's done take it
right here all done just like that that's if you have too much on the wall it's actually pretty
easy one where they used to blow it give me a little bit more than I need all the time rather
than a little less a little nicer about you taking it off add little bar you set that Ron boom ain't
wise on the board here city corners nice stuff okay guys I won't bore you any more with that kind
of stuff it actually does take a lot of practice to do that when we get ready to hard rubber flow
I'll show you that my technique okay guys now what I'm doing with this it's a sponge or a hard
rubber float there's hard rubber for tonight I taped it myself and what I'm doing is just
going in circular motion you want to go in large circular motions like this on big walls what I'm
doing is I'm compacting on I'm pushing it in very hard what I want you I wanted real compacted and
more importantly this opens the they stuck what allows you to breathe so it does dry faster and
again he's gonna place this magic board here we always like it up before but sometimes we don't
have that luxury we actually did the synagogue Church in Berkeley off of Bancroft we did that
whole church block on the building almost we locked the whole building before any windows
would be even installed because they had a mate tortoise so actually when the windows came in
then we installed those about two months later because it was pouring down rain about any time
you could do something sooner like thank you the board of course you want to do that anyway when
we're gonna take lunch in about 10-15 minutes and after lunch we may be able to apply the the color
finish and again the color finish is always to give it the same texture it is not gonna they're
gonna paint the whole wall after we're done and maybe an hour before I see you then okay guys
back to this finish here we are almost done on this level here we're gonna call it quits you
get the idea the texture is all I'm bringing out I'm using this Santa Barbara Mahavir color code
simply and that's detector that's it they are gonna paint this and there we have it I notice
the transition these transitions here guys these take a lot of time you float them with a hard
rubber float then you float it with the sponge float you got to know what you're doing to get
this transition this tight so a few folks try to do this you're certainly be able to apply it
but I've got many folks who get the transition that well anyhow my name is Kirk I'm with Kirk
Giordano plastering thank you folks for watching as usual we'll see you guys on the next one
