hi guys, kirk and Jason here, with Kirk Giordano plastering. today we're gonna show you how to put
this back together, can anybody see what's wrong with this picture? A lot of you DUI fellas will
look at it and say well, I caught it right off they placed a box right on the studs. The big no-no, I
couldn't get away with it, nor could any of the contractors I work for, get away with that. it's
like a window or a door. You have to have your flashing first then you put this in, In the past I
have told people this and I have loosened these up and tried to slide paper but I've broken, here we
have a pipe here. it's that type of metal that if you move it, it'll bust or break so I
stopped trying to do that instead what we're gonna do is we're gonna break out the stucco
here. Jason's gonna break out the stucco here. We're going to put a few studs inside because
this is that nasty stud walls. There's no solid backing, so unless you know what you're doing you
do more damage than good when you try to break this out and you should use a pneumatic tool, a
hammer all that'll do is break the paper inside, and do more damage than good. Anyhow let me show
you something over here too while we're at a guy this fella just happens to have a chop saw
and this is the flashing we're talking about, it's a straight flash made by, "DuPont" anyhow
Jason cut all these pieces what we're going to do is you could see the outside here now I want
to make it solid backing and I don't always have this luxury but just fella had all the tools so
Jason cut this piece here and what we're gonna do is we're gonna put this guy on here we're gonna
break it out to about here this way it gives us something solid to break out and it's just
a lot better take me about 10 minutes the time it took to cut these into two sister men at an angle
like 15 minutes we'll save that when we break out anyhow we're gonna do that real quick and when we
get to that stage I'll show you how to put this thing back together alright guys we are at that
stage Jay had the nasty job of breaking this all out we've got a few studs sistered in here
we couldn't assist or anything in here because there's pipes wires and it's either galvanized
they're cast I this pipe here guess what guys if you move this and try to put wood under it
and it snaps you got to redo this whole thing how do I know that snapped two of them I don't touch
those anymore but this is about the best you can be do when you break out this is a stud wall so
with a stud wall you've got no solid backing so what I do is I'll go back here and hold something
jailbreak out same with the top here it looks pretty bad here but nothing we can't handle now
I was just cutting some of this straight flash bump makes this tough to kind of slide in here
like so and use it and fellas as well Kirk I got this this here can you use it and I say for the
flash man that's great stuff a lot of people use that I'm only partial to this stuff because it
has the bends in it already has these pre bends it's for another particular system but what I'll
do now is I'm gonna do this peel and stick and of course once you peel this it's a real drag
to get it in there because it wants to stick to everything but once you got that okay now
this I'm gonna stick it now this last piece right here is what I like about this straight flash now
I'm gonna attach this right to the bottom here and notice guys when you do that say like mmm my knife
here do that it gives you a nice feel a really good seal and by the way - nothing adheres to
dust guys no so what I did is I we brushed all the dust off this the best you can and then I
took a piece of this tonight use the glue part to get all the dust off here and again you see
this this area here where we have a natural Bend that's what I want so what I'll do is I'll take
this Bend now I'm gonna take the bend right to the corner and I'm gonna put it right here and
you guys do this it's a really hot day right now so it tends to want to stick to everything so the
idea is put this on don't know you want to put it on the best you can when you get to get that
on you don't want it to curve either you don't want an air hole then you what you do is just
peel these guys off right here and attach it a little bit better and for you folks watching say
man I don't want to go spend a hundred bucks for a roll of that stuff you could always use paper too
so now what I'm doing is I'm pressing this on to the existing paper and guys that could ship
pretty good a pretty good fit right here where the seal is waterproof the water's gonna get in
here and you might say well man I've got huge eaves I don't need to do that because no water
it's gonna get on it that's one way to think but another way is this should last a lifetime get
all the bubbles out right there and you don't want this going past a stucco and if you do like I just
did just cut it right here and pull it right off because again it's about 95 degrees in the shade
so this stuff tends to stick everywhere anyway I'm gonna go ahead and put my other piece here
and when we get some things like this up here guys this is no big deal again we don't want to
break any of these arm what I'm gonna do is slide the same paper or this here underneath here and
then when that's done I'm gonna use this little handy dandy polyurethane caulking and seal all
the edges make it bulletproof then we're going to show you how to even put the stuff along and
that's that finish all right guys Jay had done the nasty work again and his mix this mud for this you
guys watch what we do you probably know that both of us would rather do stucco than laughs any day
but that's just you guys who aren't familiar with the tools and don't know how to do this stuff it's
always hard once you get it nothing to it easy peasy okay that stuff in the bottom got get it
in there stop in the bog boom get some more mud one two three that's good cellar Raiders in a guy
alright is in this stuff so what does that mean means that stuff is gonna harden quick
real quick we've got about five minutes before it's hard as a rock what gently only need them
slam what we do is we push it in there guys push it in there make it make it squeeze through just
like the last guy did squeeze that stuff through bet it key its key it into the existing sucka what
does that mean squish it in the existing real hard and that keys it less likely to yeah one
more little scoop you guys watching what I doing you try to do this remember I can make it look
easy because Jason knew usually that's all the hard work they mix it you got a good consistency
that's the battle and you get calls and say man all right we're gonna let this set for about ten
minutes I'll show how we do the texture okay guys we are at the stage now where ten minutes here's
what what I tell people you can use a hard rubber plug this compact it compresses it and it gets it
into all these tight spots you just go around the perimeter like when you're done with that
if you really want to blend this in tight take a float and just go around the perimeter also
there's actually either open that up or that's kind of technical stuff for dry and purposes
okay now we are ready to do a texture so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna use the exact same
mud that we started with because this is a 16 2016 20 it just means the size of the sand I'm
you're gonna oh Lisa met Bob Mizanin holy sand with a Portland cement with accelerator so same
grit only difference a lot of these videos and I'll use a color coat so you guys can see what
I'm doing how many differences doubtful that camera will show what I'm doing because because
I'm using the same color okay what I want to do is look at that texture and that's the easy skip
child finish will take a little bit just skip it this way top here and if this is too heavy or too
light tell you guys how to improvise but gotta get to this stage verse okay that's this texture here
yeah I noticed that a lot of a lot of the windows and doors here is okay they're taking it from the
top and coming down sometimes I'll take it like so I'll put a little bit on my trial flatten it
out and go up but they're not doing that so I'm matching like and this this actually takes a lot
of practice guys when I worked Union that's all I did we practice almost every little thing and you
know I keep a hose handy I I wet all this stuff and this wall is wet so anything I get on here
just gonna pop right off in a second because I got a hose right there I'll take it let's see
last little piece let's take it like so guys and just go sideways now what I'll do is I'll look at
that texture matches but I still have to knock it down what is the knockdown me that means the
ridges here are too high it's kind of like a Taco Bell right now what I did he doesn't have that his
knock down you know tighter so what I'm gonna do is knock that down tighter match that finish and
guys if you're watching again this part a little more difficult than everything else the plastic
parts easy for us laughing nothing's kind of a drag screwing up breaking up good thing J does
all that drag stuff and finish this off guys since I made a mess on camera and splattered
my own Hawk you just take a water hose and just clean her up like that make sure the water the
wall is wet to start off with otherwise you got a scrub that's no fun anyway guys that is how
you do it the proper way you don't piss moan or wine after utility guys because I won't get you
anywhere except mad anyhow my name is Kirk Jason on the camera we thank you for watching it as
