don’t paint paint a crack on a stucco color coat finish
Hello ambitious guys and gals, if you have a crack on a stucco maintenance free stucco color finish Old Kirk says,
don’t paint a crack on a stucco color coat finish, as if you do, each time it rains your walls will look like a zebra, actually a zebra is unique, fascinating and cool looking, paint in the middle of stucco maintenance free finishes look goofy.
If you must close the hairline crack do it in the early morning and cut the tip of a caulking tube as close to the tip as possable and try not to get any on the outside perimeter of the crack itself.
If your going to paint the house than be as messy as you want as paint will hide all the different colors even when it rains.
Old Kirk says, material knowledge is 70% of being a well rounded plasterer,
The other 30% is application.

Color coat vs paint, don’t paint paint a crack on a stucco color coat finish, why does my home darken when it rains, what happens if you paint a crack on a stucco color coat finish
Can you open the crack up a little put caulking an color coat powder. TY
Evening Peter, I've found either leave them cracks alone or fill or fill and paint the entire home.
Best wishes,
kirk giordano
ok
wow!! that's like invisible ink x10! that crack me up!!!
You just put a ton of crack repair "specialist" in the soup line!!!
seriously… that is a good case to leave crack alone!
Howdy, lookatatme dude, Exzackory
cheers,

I'd say paint the whole house it looks like it could use a little love aside from the crack however most people don't want to spend the money if they don't see it necessary. I'm different that would bother the crap out of me every day it gets a bit of moisture. Love the videos kirk as a painter I've been able to learn a lot of plaster and stucco tips from you guys that have helped me in certain predicaments and that overall have made me more knowledgeable and a better tradesman! Best of luck in your future endeavors.
Evening Isaac, thank you, your on fire with that comment,
cheers,
kirk giordano
That was a slick demo kirk 🙂
Howdy mac plastering, I'm sure you know all about the old caulk then paint to hide the patch on a color coat maintenance free stucco wall,
It works temporarily, when it rains the truth is revealed,
Cheers,
kirk giordano
@Giordano's plastering & stucco repair videos Have seen it hear a few times on a few but here when most paint they do the whole lot haha bad thing is once you paint your committed to it as I am sure you know mate 🙂
as a rule the same applies here to, most folks just naturally don't know this boring but great truth,
That's my job, teaching all who wish to know all about plastering,
Cheers,
Kirk Giordano
@Giordano's plastering & stucco repair videos And those who know but want to know more 🙂 we can always learn something new 🙂
That was a perfect demo. Instead of patching/caulking, that's where you plant the giant rose bushes. Distract with beauty.
Morning Chuck, exzackory Best wishes kirk giordano plastering
nice illustration
Howdy, just explaining what folks sometime ask me, like "hey Kirk, is it ok to repair or caulk then paint a crack on a color stucco finish if I match the stucco color with paint?" Cheers, kirk giordano
Hey Kirk:How long should I wait before painting my fresh stucco (Quickrete Onecoat) on my outdoor kitchen project? Thanks for your help.
Howdy Glenn, the cure time for most stucco is 28 days so that the pH level drops. cheers, kirk giordano plastering
Thank Kirk. Your video really helped. Used it to stucco my barbecue island. You're awesome!
Good Evening Glenn, the average wait or cure time for stucco is 28 days, Have to let the pH drop so the paint won't blister is just one reason.FYI, all of us here at the giordano plastering channel we wish to thank all our subscribers and those of you who accidentally stumble on our channel a happy and prosperous new year kirk giordano plastering
You are hilarious Kirk 🙂
By the way, when you say holidays in your videos do you mean areas of the wall where there is an extruding mound or hill (the opposite of a dip I guess)?
Morning Charlie, when I say holidays I'm referring to mistakes, boo boos, drips, splatter and just downright screwups.
When a painter misses a spot he call this miss a holiday, don't ask me why but the term is popular, that I even have the habit of saying it.
Best wishes and have a happy and prosperous new year my friend.
