Stucco Texture with Top Sand, match a Dash Stucco Texture floating

Stucco Texture with Top Sand, match a Dash Stucco Texture floating

Hello everyone,
In this video I match a stucco wall that has had many coats of paint over it. When you are doing this sort of patch it is important to know you sands and materials.

I am applying a skim coat with coarse sand to match a dash or stipple finish, this does take practice.

I intentionally used a very coarse sand or (top Sand) so I could float it out to a heavy finish.
When this home was originally done it was a dash finish, the stucco was thrown or blown on.
After many coats of paint this finish has been softened, but it is still pretty heavy. If I used our normal finer sand I would have had to dash the walls myself.
This is not a big deal, but if you have the right skills you can match these finishes without that step.
