Avoid Ghosting and texture difference before painting
Big plus also make sure light are right side up 🙂
Hello ambitious guys and gals, who are interested in learning how to do it yourself, now possibly you can.
How? Watch these 700 or so how to plastering video’s explains we show and explain, how to avoid ghosting and texture difference before painting, unlike some folks might suggest, “Painting will cover or blend it in” sort of a goofy saying, paint enhances all flaws, for example, if a texture does not match the original finish, painting won’t hide this fact, but instead will enhance this effect.
Has old Kirk matched every finish since I started in this trade well over 30 years? No, no one can do that, but experience with two and three coat finishes and a lot of time in can show the average stucco guy what type of sand was used,if was a cementitious, acrylic or a synthetic stucco system which was applied and in what way, making It easier to match the new texture into the existing.
Stucco forensic science?
Or common sense learned with time served?
Me, I served my sentence and applied for a pardon, thus giving myself the knowledge to do it as proper as possible, thereby getting referred instead of being yelled at.
I usually go into details about tools and their use, plus explain and show a variety of useful plastering tips.
With a small bit of attention you can and will save cash, create a sense of euphoria and sleep well knowing, no problemo, I did this repair myself.
Save cash, great workout, sense of accomplishment, what more in life does a righteous person desire?
Old Kirk says, material knowledge is 70% of being a well rounded plasterer,
The other 30% is application.
For more quality products that I have been using, showing and recommending in our videos they have stood the test of time say for more than 20 years,(most of them anyway) the magazine below caters to these products, plus they have a really cool cover page at least for the January 2016 addition.
Don’t guess with your biggest investment purchace products that last longer than old kirk

How to avoid Ghosting and texture difference before painting
LOL at the "picture in the sky!" That weld crete is some good stuff. Im taking a quick break right now to chk out your vid. Gotta get back to finishing this yard and a half slab in a basement. Its late and i gotta get home.
The only detail that would have made the porch light even more special would have been the insertion of one of those candle-flame shaped bulbs, since everyone knows that the flame of a candle points toward the ground! I laughed aloud when you gestured at the door.
Keep those videos a-comin'.
Bravo Kirk !
the light fixture…must have been a union job…lol.jajajaja..
i liked the way you showed it over the gray, very helpful to have the contrast. Your videos make me feel like i can become a stucco ninja. Your family is lucky to have you as their sensei.
