As always a great explanation on what’s wrong along with the demonstration of how to correct the flaw. How long does this have to cure before it can be painted? How much prep prior to painting this?
Greetings Cint, most new stucco takes 28 days cure time before painting, but as just a skim coat it can be painted in two weeks.

My dad and grandpa were plasters never showed me the trade thanks to you i can tell them to kiss my ass
Greetings Frankie, dont say or do that, they did things for you that you were too young to remember, they may have been too busy trying to keep food on the table, and could have thought, I dont want my son to do this so-called grunt work.
I'd wager they love you much more than you think, take the time and remember only the good stuff, each day, you will leave the bad memories in the past where it may be better off. This mind-altering takes so much discipline that all of us have a hard time with it, try my friend, really hard.
I don't know you, but I am a father, and my daughter thought this of me once, so now she's in training as I didn't realize she wanted to learn a man's game. My bad, I was protecting her when she tried to learn. There's no manual of how to be a good dad.
Best wishes my young friend.

You can use diamond grinder if it has vacuum attachment but it seems to be quite uncommon in US.
Greetings Wizeguy, these days I usually recommend Thor demolitions as they have high powered vacumes on their bosch bulldogs so no dust, which means I can plaster instead.
I have broken out stucco many times in the past and have never learned to like that nasty work.

Evening Jacob, it took me about a half hour to repair, it would have taken longer to patch the entire wall.

You should create a live video chat to address questions on a weekly or monthly basis
. Going back on some of your videos I notice a lot of people had questions that were NEVER answered. And some people asked the same questions on different videos. Just say it would help everyone.
Good afternoon Louis, it sounds a good idea.
FYI, like this video, it just appeared with a question, but actually, there were many questions and comments.
It's out of my hands when a video will appear on this site to me with a comment or question.
The fact is, if I see a comment or question, I respond to it.

Kirk, I've spent the last month watching your videos. Thanks. I ran into a problem I don't think you have covered. I had to stop stuccoing in the middle of the scratch coat. I feathered the stucco out as best I could, but when I start again am I going to get a serious crack? Should I use a bonding adhesive?
Good afternoon, Kimberly, will you get a cold joint is a technical term, doubtful, Cold joints usually occur when you start and stop on the second coat, not the first coat.
As a rule, it's best to start and finish wall to wall, but sometimes this is not always possible.

Kirk. How do you know you didn't create a little bulge in the wall by patching it?
Is there a tip for knowing that just by looking at it perpendicular like you do?
Use a straight edge against the wall to see if its flush
Good afternoon, Yoav, I can look at a wall and tell if it's wavy or straight.
However, I told the homeowner I would create a much better appearance than what he had before. This we did.
Or, like the fella below said, I could use a straight edge or a ten-foot two by four.

This guy is amazing…i beeen doing stucco here n there for 5 years and nowhere near that speed and effortlessness
Very good teacher
Kirk , this is Hillbilly from Kentucky , is it necessary to float out the stucco after you rod it? if you're going to Prime and put an elastomeric synthetic finish coat over the hard coat?
Hi Mr. Kirk. I have 3 easy questions if possible asked. a)what type-kind of bonding agent you are using before the 3/1 stucco and time to go after that. b)anything else as agent to add in the mud e.g sb agent? and c)cannot find that brush here. Any link please?

I can’t trust a man that doesn’t drink with me .. lol cheers at the end there!
Signore Giordano! Thank you for sharing some of your broad experience free for all who are willing to learn. I’m writing from Cape Town, South Africa. Been renovating my house for almost 3 years. 70 years old, double skin brick walls with old stippled texture (dash?) and many, many coats of paint. After a lot of chasing for electricity, some plumbing, new windows, window bands, etc. , my exterior walls look like a single huge patch, and you’re too far to come and fix it. I’ve been told the old dash can be match, but honestly after seeing the level of craftsmanship in this country, I’ve decided I’d rather do my own research and tackle it myself. And you’ve already given me a lot of tips and ideas. Is there a way I can share some pictures with you?Much appreciated from the other side of the Atlantic. Pablo
Great video again
2nd time watching this. Thank you kirk for being the man and walking the walk.Give everyone a hammer and they will build the world they deserve.My drywall skills are on another level, after watching your trowel work.
