hi guys Kirk here with kirk giordano plastering, today what we're gonna do is quite simple we are
going to mud these walls they're contractors sheetrock them actually contracting these
corners up to so I'm just applying the corners right now what we're gonna also do is bring
appliances with walls so that means fibermesh tape here fibermesh tape over the joints just
installing the rest of these corners here and we're also going to put a plaster weld it has
some pink stuff here we're gonna put plaster weld all over the sheet off you're just gonna roll
that only takes about 10-15 minutes you might say why not just mud everything well like the
homeowner said you're gonna mask off everything if I was to mud this we do three coats of money
we're still going to do three coats of plaster but three coats of mud you have to sand it and
that means zipper bag in the living room and dust goes everywhere would you sand it not only do we
get full of death but the whole house is full of dust if we don't put the zippers and the plastic
it's it's a nightmare I'd rather do this any day so once we get to that stage we'll show you how
we like to do it I don't like to spin my wheels and sand anything if I don't have to so we are
going to apply a 20-minute mud first and as soon as we're done with that coat we're going to come
right back we're going to put another 20-minute mud then we're going to do the texture all same
day no dust no sanding just trolley okay guys we're doing our first coat and what I'm using
is a 20-minute mud which means must balance Twain it's okay so what I'm doing is all the big stuff
all the big stuff right here where I have the joints through this 20 minute buzz because the
right amount of time for us after I skim coat everything like I'm doing now including the no
I'm going to actually put a texture off all of this you can't see here there was a lot of mesh
tape or actually wire can you back up and see this one that doesn't have mud on it so this
is a good spot for 20-minute month because I can fill this and by the time I'm done with the bucket
come back to it here so tips to this power right here if you guys make a big mess don't step on
the mess because you'll poke through the paper and get the wood also I Ramesh take this stuff
here leave it covered up always use the role that you started with because you leave it
uncovered it gets old and won't stick anymore a lot of little things like that that you'll
learn by watching these videos anyway I'm gonna we're using a hot cement which means I've got a
hustle so I'm through explaining what we do and I'm going to put my first coat on here okay I've
got a lot of my fault done now I'm just burning up the material they actually should have used
three or five eight sheet month we used to have in yourself we're trying to improvise now with
the mud actual as you go eighths of an inch max when you sheetrock so we're improvising
and putting on many thick coats to try to build this out to the proper grounds it's a tip when
you guys do sheet rock got to know your sheet on whether or not it's happen sheet rock or three
are sorry five-eighths generally most is about five eighths especially when you're trying to
match in the posture finishes anyway we're going to keep on putting coat after coat until we bring
you this out at least a quarter inch okay guys my third coat here I actually went to the hardware
store I bought some five-minute fun because I wasn't planning on going so thick right here
one a 1/8 is generally what we do but I'm going 3/4 on the bottom and so it takes coat after coat
after coat the 5-minute money on it says quick we got five minutes so anyway again my job is
not to cry about grounds being off but to correct it that's why they hire me ok guys usually here's
wing tool but it's something like this around the time you get your corner then swimming pool trial
Ok, guys, the right stage now, we're finishing this off ah I'm going to end this video right here
with just doing the texture and what we're going to match in the living room texture here. So let's
say trowel finish, effortless finish if you know how to do it anyway this job has been
a bit of black that's a lot of fun because it's so many improvising areas where nothing matches
so I like going to doing this stuff anyhow my name isn't Kirk I'm with Kirk giordano
plastering, we thank you for watching, and as usual, we'll see you folks on the next one.
