Hello guys, Kirk and Jason here with Kirk Giordano plastering,
an interesting thing here the owner of this property here asked me hey Kirk this is my
neighbor's garage can you fix this I said sure we can fix it he says well how are you gonna
fix it I said first of all pressure wash it well kind of like micro score it because the
paint could have been here 30 40 years and our product is only as good as what its applied
over then we'll put weld Creed it's a bonding agent any bonding agent will work as long as
it adheres stucco to a painted surface so I got a question for you folks Jay and I were looking
at this and we were thinking what the heck did they do usually if they had brick or flagstone
here it would be scratched then they attach that and of course to pull that off you'd destroy the
wall Jay come up with there's a bunch of roots here maybe they had bushes there and I thought
probably they had a planter here anybody got any opinion of why somebody would stop at this
point say 30 40 years ago maybe even 60 and just leave that mine was bushes well Jay was
bushes and I thought man I can't explain that one anyway we're going to show you how to put
this back together guys first thing you want to do is skim it after it's skimmed say like so in
here after I skim it then we're gonna allow that to set we're gonna allow it to set about
forty minutes will do the you guys won't see that boring wait time but tight tight fit in here after
we get this code on right here I won't do the entire wall but I'll give you an idea of how to
do it just in case you run across something very similar I notice with the bonding agent we went
about six inches above the actual work where we're gonna do I always want to go a little over rather
than under because that can be painted out guys we're gonna show you is how we put this texture
in here but bin it's a cold day today I would say about well it's 7:00 in the morning it's
December I'd say that the weather is about 45 so 45 minutes we have to allow this to dry if it were
to say 100 degrees I can do this and then put my texture and almost immediately but again we have
to account for weather a lot of you guys say hey I tried to do what you did and can't do it well
guys that's just time in time in practice season after season to get them used to what the weather
conditions are and how they affect the drying of the stucco pretty necessary stuff so what
I'm gonna do is just cut out this little piece here we are going to get busy and do some other
stuff then I'll come back when this is set and show you how we do the tachi which is quite easy
alright guys change of plans I'm gonna show you how to do this texture if my dad's up on
a roof working and can't come down but this mud is ready it's been about three hours why did it
take so long for it to dry we put it over a painted surface we put a bonding agent then
we spread and there's nowhere for that moisture to go it's real cold day like he was saying so
it just takes a little while now do this texture you have to know to match any texture you got to
know what they did what did this guy do well he did different things on each part anyway
we're gonna match what were closest to what he did here he used about half his trowel he kept
it real flat and he pushed it hard so that he got these ridges or slobbers over here you can
see these don't most trowel there's not much texture here versus elsewhere anyway to match
it what you do is you've got your stuff it's kind of set you push in hard with half the
trowel and you're going kind of straight some of our textures we do circles or half circles
and whatnot he didn't really do that his are pretty straight so he push in and really drag
it and make those ridges and then make them kind of straight and over he started from
the top and went down I can tell that because he's got one here and then he got one here so
he did all the way at the top came all the way down so mine are gonna start at the top and go
down and then he's got a couple in between his so we just do like that so then you just push in
Just like that and you may get some slobbers or holidays you can fix them after the fact anyway
you just let this set paint it you're good this here we're gonna float make that tie in
a little nicer but this is really just how do you match this texture big flat strokes
pushing hard get these ridges alright guys Jays done with this thought we'd show it
to you because we're hustling we had to finish this whole edition we don't always get to stop
what we're doing focus on one thing anyhow that's done we're getting ready to get out
of here I thought I'd show you the final result before we hit the road my name is Kirk Justin
