howdy folks, Kirk Jason here with Kirk Giordano plastering, my buddy Tim also helping us with this
we are in San Ramon around 3 p.m. I'd say it's about a hundred degrees, what do you think man it's not up
here so what we were going to do we changed plans Tim's just gonna scoop me this mud,
What I'm going to do is, show you guys how we put it on here, Tim will scoop it to me again
we had a different type of system we were going do, Tim was going to do one and I was gonna do one, Jay
was gonna help us out and do one too but it's so hot and because this is gonna set so fast because
of the heat we're all gonna work together here and by the way guys folks emailed me this window about
two weeks ago and said Kirk what do you think would you charge me to put it back together?
that's it, first of all, not done right, fellas. You got a wire it or pay for it correctly. It's gonna leak
so throughout time they went ahead and we did it they've replaced or repaper did get a whole
bunch of stuff and uh I told the fellow will send me another picture so I can see exactly what you
guys have done so when I get there I'll know if I need anything that never happened so we just got
here a little while ago and well I was okay yeah decent we ended up having to put the wire in for
them extend it a little bit further and caulk a few things here and there I notice folks if you're
ever doing windows guys cover your windows in case you're looking you're saying well how come you're
not covered kurz a professional actually I'm not worried about getting any on these frames right
here because even if I do it just wipes right off alright now we've got a bucket of hot mud and
well that says mud is hot that means it is if the first bucket mixes and as fast as I put the stuff
on guys in this kind of heat its setting up right in your way and by the way guys of course we have
a fifty-year roof here and last thing we want to do is damage that roof so we've got it covered all
right here we go now I start back at the bottom as soon as I get this bucket put on I'm gonna
start floating this with a hard rubber float and a green sponge float what the heck that is these
folks would call me say well gee I gotta match the texture the texture easy guys if you know how to
do it we are not gonna use this mud right here we're gonna use a different kind of mud what I'm
doing is taking care that I don't splatter this because if I hit it too hard I'll splatter it all
right Tim's used to this kind of weather he lives in Vacaville, he would get the hundred and ten daily
I'll tell you guys I'd rather work in a hundred degree weather than and the rain or the cold any
day stuff we all right by the way like I said you folks have any any projects email it to me
you got my website, or you can just email it to Kirkgiordano@gmail.com or even simpler than
that is Kirk4stucco@gmail.com, Jason is always also licensed in his Jason sports stucco
let me have that fresh stuff now yeah Jason for stucco at gmail.com all right all we're gonna do
guys is we're doing a couple windows here I'm just gonna show you this one and now that I've
got this outline we're gonna do underneath here now this is a stud house guy this is one of the
hottest houses - laughs because it studs and in here there's it's Hollow they had that do
a real nice paper job must have taken hours to get it all in there properly all right couple
more hocks we're gonna have lick I can pull it up into here or I can take it this way put it
here just like that either way we'll get the job done I'm gonna I like to take it like that pull
it here and then trims out my window right so here slam beautiful we are getting their guys
nothing like working in 100-degree rather putting stuff along you look like you sweat in there Tim.
there you go all right piece of cake guys didn't know how to do it and again with just kind of heat
you can do this with one solid coat but again guys we make it look a little bit
easier than it actually is you want to see how difficult it really is I'll let Tim show you no
I'm kidding all right Tim says well let me show it to them and you scoop it I thought man I hate
scooping I'd rather do this any day than scoop mud, scooping mud breaks up there with breaking stucco off
houses I don't like doing either, all right guys we're gonna let this set for Oh 15 minutes
and we're gonna get busy on another window after I let this set I'll show you how we hard rubber
floated and matched this texture, okay guys now what I'm doing is I'm a hard rubber floating all the
edges to compress it I've already done it then what I'm gonna do is, yeah, Tim's are ahead of me
and you folks you might think earlier when I said I I'm not covering these windows you might say Oh
lousy professional, he's not covering the windows but Tim and I have a gentleman's bet Jay
said I better bring it up otherwise, people will say, dad, if you're not covering windows, they're
not gonna want to hire you, our bet was if I got any on this window frame which will pop right off
then I've got to buy the pint this evening it's Friday, and yes, we are gonna go have a pint
or a quart or even a pitcher of beer now since I didn't get any on this one, Tim okay on that
window over there if I get any on it I'll still honor that bet but I didn't get any on that one
either so I said lastly I'll do the texture and he said I'll mix it I said oh no you'll mix me
up a bunch of soup just so you could win that bet so what I've got here guys is this is uh
We call color coat, but why am I using color coat mud because I cannot match this texture,
nor can anybody else with the regular scratching brown material, so they match this with the color
coat. I'm gonna match it with the color coat, and Tim, you can watch me if I get any on the frames.
I might wipe it off, so I don't have to buy it, okay? Guys, here we are now. I'm gonna start over
here now. I'm looking at their texture. These are keg oops doesn't such a piece of cake take
it here yeah there I went over that and booboo did I just go right back over it I notice guys their
textures flat like a pancake. Hence, my texture here is my product, and it's called marble finish,
which means it has hardly any aggregate in it, so it's okay to continue with what I'm doing now.
Here's where I don't want to drop any on that window. Oh, Tim might be over here watching.
alright, the last thing I'm gonna do is take this side
We, as plasterers, usually take it from the frame and go away from it. Still,
if I saw some fella who didn't like this guy here he went straight up I'll take it straight up just
to match what he did, then I'm gonna flatten this out here, slab it and do the bottom anyway, guys
you see where this is going piece of cake if you know how to do it anyhow my name is Kirk, Jason
on the camera, he's also mixing everything with Tim giving us a hand on this particular one because of
this hot weather, as usual folks we thank you guys for watching. We'll see you guys at the next one.
