hi guys Kirk and Jayson here with kirk giordano plastering today what I want to show you guys is
a texture now granted we're about an hour and a half away from our house but there's like 15
windows on a house and the guy was in trouble so i said okay i'll drive that distance to fix
those he's actually three hours from this house I said well video one in one area so you can see
what we're doing just for the heck of it put it on my youtube page anyway he had a straight
cut here it was straight here it was straight here and so we put a clear caulking in it and
since i put a clear caulking in it color coat won't adhere to the caulking so i had to use
a bonding agent what's a bonding agent well i usually use world creed or some other things
that we just take for take for example this wall here we're going to color coat this also because
the folks that did this said hey paint it and it will match look like it'll match this guy's
i mean i get a lot of you guys we got a lot of followers this will not match in fact when it's
painted it'll be more of an eyesore than it is right now because paint enhances flawed give you
an idea of these guys's quality of work I mean it could happen but when you do something goofy
like this what's wrong with that picture this guy I'll let you figure that out but anyway I
get back to what I'm supposed to be showing you guys all right we got a saw cut here the best i
can do i said you know a lot of the windows in doors there they saw cut it so unless you break
it out properly and tie the wire to wire you can get a perimeter crack I said even if I caucus and
I color-coded I can still get a perimeter crack because the minute a whole bunch of vibration
gets started like windows and doors the vibration causes the cracking like that door shuts and it
causes vibration I'll share how we really match this finish though this would match alright we
take some color coat material now we spread it okay this is a color coat material by La Habra
and it is a finish coat it's usually for color coat maintenance-free finishes what is the color
coat maintenance-free finished well that is a finished design to be applied just like I'm
doing and lasts forever when I say forever it'll last hundreds of years but it won't come off like
pink so paint roll and say for example paint in the heat will last about seven eight years if
it's in the cold weather maybe 12 but you always have to repaint color cuts you'd never have to
redo them they they never come off like a painted surface they do however tend to lighten or darken
in about 40 50 years not much it actually looks cool when they do that effect so what we do guys
is in order to minimize this cracking and more importantly match the finish because they're
going to paint the house is ok we go over once you got over it and you can float your edges I
had I not put this bonding agent on here um this would be dry by now I'm going to grab a float
here and get the excess moisture out because it's got water I don't want any water in here I may be
able to texture this right now get all the water out of this float come on now all right now what
do what I want to do is I want to just feather in this joint a little bit feather it in just
with this it gets it a little tighter guys we get that little tighter what happens if I go like this
to the wall well now you see these float mark that's the grit they don't have that under here
but you can get away with it on the edge so i will go back cover this because the idea is holiday the
idea is when I put my texture on here we want the base coat to be smooth just like this so it would
be best if I waited about 15 minutes but I can work this or do is take the same color code here
guys alright and we look at the finish ok this is 20 30 this is 20 30 so a lot of guys have a
technique or a different style to their particular textures I'm looking at the way this fella did it
of course he's right-handed most people are and he just took it at an angle from say left hip on
over to your ear ok so i can do that we're going to take it oh man i just thought of something this
texture doesn't show because it's the same color however to give you an idea of what we're doing
because this is not going to show same color go over here for a second watch this guy's ok I'm
not gonna spread it out i'm just gonna show you not not thick enough now there you go it's a it's
just a texture but would this if i just did this guy i'm looking at their stuff if i just did this
and I knocked it down with that match one it's painted most certainly not why because you'll
see this grit here underneath so I'm going to have to base coat this just like this I'm base coating
this over here and then we put a texture on it so because the camera won't show white on white
hopefully you get the idea guy you just skip it but you have to put the right base on it this is
base 20 30 anyway guys hope you learned something sorry we cannot show you the exact finish because
it just won't show with this eggshell background in this white but you kind of get the idea my
name is Kurt Jason on the camera way thank you for watching guys and notice this just feather
into the existing and my weld Crete is way over here we thank you for watching and as usual let's
