Good morning folks Kirk Giordano Plastering, today what I'm going to show you guys is proper
way to use the tools and how to pull it off the board since we've already gone over on many of
my other videos how to laughs properly we're going to go over this okay my brother just put a whole
bunch of cement here now I'm going to take this cement huh and what I do is I just give it about
like that love to do this a lot of guys I put it like this but if you do that then it's going to
just all over the side my back just again you're going to drop a lot less cement on the ground I'm
using a swimming pool trowel this swimming pool trowel is is just what it's named for we use it
in swimming pools so there's less joints we also have square child's which a majority of people
use but because I'm doing a tie-in right here I want to use this one then I'm going to show
you how to use this guy here you'll love this when we get to it okay first thing I'm going to
do is my joint here I'm going to get the joint first because that tends to fall out oh do you
joint first that way when we do the next coat on lower stuff well you already got your joint gun.
Alright, let's enjoy. You got to squeeze it in there hard harder you squeeze it in there, the
less likely it's going to fall out. So you don't use a lot of elbow grease come to try it out.
the last poll before I move on to the next phase cheater leave it in there okay now that
that squeezed in there have some fun with this guy this is called well hold about a hundred
different names we call it a cheater and the cheater instead of using a hockey trowel which
kind of get you off balance one hand holding it and the other hand doing this cheater works your
whole body relax so pick it up and you kind of squat good workout what I usually do is I feel the
guy click all dead center pull it off your Center now using your legs is a good workout coming here
get the idea that's with the cheetah you always put the mud to get Center
goes off here and here well then when you put it on the wall it is all so there you
have it with the cheater I'm going to go ahead and cheat the rest then I'm going
to scratch it I won't bore that heck any guys with it when I get too brown,
and I'll show you that next to using the same cheater okay guys we're gonna scratch it now,
and scratcher I always take mine for it when we used to work Union and behind our pump you have
to blow and go so the tape on it turn we have a Pap test it gets it off is it a HIPAA tape yes
just like the word indicates scratch and the scratch is for the mechanical bond meeting the
next coat will adhere not only through a suction but it here in these grooves mark gives it a real
I'm floating in these seas right here that way when I go to brown it we're not half the
house this is over the house then we're going to brown we have a big lump here in the Pioneer are
somewhat ugly no get back tomorrow one scratch again always clear the brown coat just trim it
off you turn it on then scratch it always wars up again how to bellows a will come out if we
go diagonal well go diagonal pulled a can hit this in slide down but going horizontal it's
a better mechanical bond all right guys can you Asian where we left off now what I did is I hose
the scratch down I took a water hose back here while my brothers mix it it takes 15 minutes to
mix I get this water two or three times I wanted saturated with water if it will they dried up
it'll be white issue and then when I go to put the brown foot over it sticks to it so I got no
coordination is just when I go to pull it up it'll stick so fast that's not what I want I
want to use skill rather than strength and again today I want to just show you how to use this
cheetah grab it and as I was saying the but on the board I generally put it in fill the cheater
up I leave an inch of here it is there because if you go like this then as you walk over there most
of its going to spill off and when I go against the wall all this excess skin will hit the wall
and end up on the ground so much fun to pick up so this is the important part with like so get
off that's as much as you want on it when you walk it over here all right again never wanted
this to to get past these edges there execute well because I see some clumps but that's okay
I'm finished that we're matching it's a pretty wavy finish it's not lauded or true so I have
a lot of room for error I just keep doing this right here taking the mud off of here put it on.
yeah like that
I want it a little bit all right boys spread out this little bit here and float what I
didn't really do is wait till them mid afternoon Sun right here which we're doing the whole house
here eventually we're going to be in the Sun then I'll be using more muscle rather than skill oh if
you were to see this wall it's really wavy so I'm putting waves intentionally in here and
in about a 15 or 20 minutes this is going to be set enough where I take this green sponge plate
and I want to do this I float it down and the joints you're going to be floating just like
this to match in this finish you might think we're supposed to get all those tools from the
cheaters aux trials float get all this stuff it open a house a building supply they got
everything there so including these guys here call these cheaters about 20 different names form but
we're just used to calling them cheater forget everything you know donate materials and open
hope you learn something from this one simply don't see on the next one open out it forgot to
show you guys their completion of the project follow me around here J and you all patchwork
originally just put a new foundation in plus the while the foundation was up they installed
some windows here and there this will give you a real real good idea of the texture matching the
finish to have here has been painted so many times that it's smoothed out so not only did
I float it but I came back with a trowel and just light you hit it that way when they do a
primer and the paint will match on the money but there you have it see on the next one.
