Stucco transitions, hard rubber stucco floats create a finer sand finish

April 25, 2021 By Stucco Plastering

It’s the old plastering with dancing shoe trick, to add some love and laughter back in the plastering trade, just to show, we have fun too.

To all our subscribers or folks who wander into our channel by choice or reasons unknown.
In this video, I’m explaining how a hard rubber or polyurethane plaster float is used to achieve a finer sand finish to blend into your existing fine sand finish.
A fine sand stucco fish is different than a stucco sand finish that a sponge flat has been used. When a song float is used, it brings much of the sand to the surface, which most houses have.
When used properly, a stucco hard rubber float is to make the walls true and plumb and compact the stucco to reduce hairline cracking.
However, it can also be used to give the walls a fine sand finish; as to what finish was on these walls.
Again you can learn to plaster in a few short years, but knowing how previous plasterer textures or finishes are applied, takes more time.
If you want a fine sand finish on your home, you may tell your plastering professional to use a hard rubber stucco float for your finish.😏

Perhaps some may get a kick out of how many things can be used to get the stucco on the walls. -https://youtu.be/e1vPSUGIv74/ Stucco/plastering walls using shoes, pans, shovels, or trowels.

Our unique plastering Tip: all subscribers or anyone who stumbles on our channel with a question, type it into our Stucco/Plastering channel, and like magic, a video will appear to explain how it’s done.
This feature is miles ahead of any plastering forum.
Then kick back, relax, and enjoy the show!
