hi guys kirk and jason with Kirk Giordano plastering answer question for you folks I've
had a lot of folks they called me and said gee Kirk how could you use the galvanized web screens
or drip screens they're called the weeper drip because they have the holes at the bottom and a
lot of folks they would G back here in New York and in East Coast we only use vinyl well I'm in
California we can use galvanized say for example these are their galvanized or steel and they're
coated so they're not supposed to run without the East Coast you get the snow the rain you get a lot
of that stuff so it's you know whether or not use vinyl that's your business here I want to
show you something okay for example we've got the compressor going on we've got a lot of stuff going
on we got pouring down rain it's about noontime now so it's warmed up we got here earlier we had
gloves on if you just touch something felt like your fingers getting smashed in a vise because
it was about 35 degrees right now it's about 45 so it's warming up get him back to what I was
just talking about as far as the galvanized versus the vinyl I say use whatever floats your boat guy
for example this post and if you notice we got we have six posts around this fancy deck here this is
funny we did that about four years ago and it was in a winter time also the funny thing about that
was Jay and I were in the back there my brother Lou bringing the wheelbarrows and he kept getting
stuck in the mud because he got 500 pounds of cement in a wheelbarrow and you're getting stuck
in the mud boy was he whined in that whole day we finally ended up putting plank everywhere for
them that's another story anyway say for example you got your streets and what I did was we cut 20
screens at the length we needed then we put our 45s that whole scrap pile there is to just save
us a bunch of time guys so okay so we take one of these and by the way two guys if if you're gonna
pour concrete next to a wall take your flashing whatever kind of flash it is it should be some
type of metal tin works but galvanized prefer these guys went up a half in can you go up a
half inch sure better to go up a solid inch and we could raise screens or this as far as we like but
right now we're up about a half inch what I'll do is I'll take some liquid flashing and this right
here this moist stop is probably some of the best sealant there is so we take the moist stop we go
around the flashing now we'll we'll take these guys here these are weeps or drip screed they
mean the exact same thing well place it around the whole perimeter now we get these around the
perimeter and that way it protects the bottom of the wall because you can't have you can't have the
rain coming down here you see we're all we're all wet anyway so we can't have the rain going
through here and underneath it rotting out the bottom of the wood we take it for example always
wear glasses guys you see how many strong ties we have there's a strong tie Simpson strong ties
and if you hit that the staple would hit that and hit you in the face have I almost lost an eye you
betcha one time I'm gonna switch from placing weave screens around the perimeter and go to
something else because we've already done a lot of this to cut this video time in half okay now
we're wrapped around these posts these posts gotta have two layers of paper around it I'm using the
window here as a template to give me an idea of just how much to cut so I can wrap this guy like
a Christmas present so I'll cut this using the roll as a guide I follow the roll boom straight
down you got a straight cut now put this guy out of my way come on now get it out of the way you
know what another funny thing we're we're on this and we might get some Lightning just before we did
the beginning of this video we had all kinds of lightning and guess what song was playing
yes this is too coincidental guns and roses it was that song where he says we pray for the rain
to the Thunder in the rain to quietly pass me by and I thought well huh how coincidental as what
we're doing because we're getting all kinds of lightning right now hopefully we don't get zapped
anyway we've got the we've got these screens down here and yeah it gets kind of messy but if you're
gonna do it guys if you have concrete I I really recommend that moist stop that's the best there
is because Sikaflex and other products that I used often they don't they're not compatible in
the water they just simply don't work now here's another thing you folks don't see me do too often
I'm using a structure laughs why because it's squares if I try to go around here with my 17
or 18 gauge wire that I generally use it's hard to wrap these corners so with the structu laughs it's
actually kind of easy I'm good in the rain for a second I've been in the rain all day anyway a
little bit more won't hurt me and and guys even struck the last has got to be attached properly
where it's furred out okay I'm going to use my big gun soon now the structure laughs will Bend
whereas the Kay laughs and all the rest of those 17 gauge and 18 gauge they don't bend well so this
we take it we Bend around we've been to round this pillar here so anybody who's got pillars
I highly recommend you use a structure laughs will come here and you see where I'm going with
this I'm gonna continue going around and if I hit this strong time what's going to happen with my
hammer tacker I'm gonna busted how many have we busted so far hundreds of them or a lot of them
anyway especially when I'm working with people that don't know much about them now what we're
doing here guys is I'm pulling this around here is this a two-man job not really it's just one guy
you pull it around and what does this do this provides a fur and what a fur is is where the
stucco goes not only see that I just hit that my own strong tie okay sometimes you can bust
a gun doing that now that's what we want here guys now what I would generally do is I'm gonna
cut this rather than show you that five minutes of cutting Jason already cut this one here now
hey just cut this one here so this is ready for a corner now here's the thing guys you see all this
stuff right here this is a whole box of corner aid what is corner aid well quarter aid is to guide
us so that we don't have to try and make corners if if you watch what we've done you know we have
well over six seven eight hundred videos and we show how to do almost everything that's related
to interior plastering and/or stucco so I've shown how to make corners without corners but that's too
much work what I'm going to do next is because we don't have these cut because we're getting rained
on we've got all kinds of things happening here Jay and I are gonna cut a bunch of these right now
this is a seven-foot pillar and these are 10-foot so we're going to cut three feet off each one and
once we do that I'll show you how we attach them and probably wrap this up okay guys we made it
it rained and thunder lightning all kinds of good stuff but we've made it wanna give them a 360 or
180 of everything we've done here these corners pretty time-consuming we put on about about 70
each box has 40 they're 10 footers so we just cut them as we need them to put them on I figured I'd
put these last three on in on the camera and kind of think of what did I leave off if anything oh
yeah we started this job a year ago you might say wow you're going on time well they put in
four new plans and to redo it they've redone this back deck quite a few times because they wanted
something different and the city says you got to do this you got to do that so one thing led to
another so all of our paper that we had existing we had to cover it up why because you cannot leave
paper on that long if it's a windy wall you can get away with a month but we didn't have no wind
back here particularly but we had a lot of rain so we had to put all new paper you cannot have
existing paper on that long it loses its warranty anyway my last corner here and you folks watch and
say wow sure there's a lot of corner Jay I did a job about three months ago we used four boxes of
corners anyway you see how how that is straight and when we go get ready to stuff who gives us
a clean line to stop - my name is Kirk Jason on the camera now show jason's wearing ski jacket
this is what he's ski patrol so when he was doing ski patrol that's how he dresses up it's a cold
day out here guys they warm and dry absolutely anyway we thank you for watching and as usual
