Hey Kirk- 1:20 am as I watch a lot of your videos and trying to solve a huge dilemma. I’ve been in UK for last 28 years and wording is proving to be a problem in the rendering of block walls , etc. Everything is very different to what I’m used to. Plasticizer , render , skim - ppl look at me like I’m foreign. Then product association is just gone out the window. You’d think possibly items would be the same all around the world. Just finding bulk sands in different course types - got to be kidding... People here in Carolina look at me like I’m asking for a pink flying elephant 😉. I’m pretty lost atm and as a high end landscaper, not nice place to be 40 years into the business with award winning gardens in UK. So your videos after scrolling , ummm -some-( a lot ) of wanna be plasterers giving bad advice is a huge help. Just watched a guy plastering with his hands .WHAT!!!

Atta Boy T mare Dude, you can do it. Tip, when anyone starts to apply cement plaster at first, there are muscles in your forearm, wrist and deltoid and shoulders that you more than likely didn’t know existed. These muscles are rarely used in everyday living. Thus they will feel like they are on fire or swell up when you start to apply plaster, no worries, this is an excellent sign of unused and still weak muscles, not hurt muscles. then when that beautiful pain is gone, begin again. Your wrist, forearms or shoulders will burn, but that's o.k. For the average person, it takes a week or two to get those unused muscles strong enough to move mud where you want it. FYI, if you fall off a bike and hurt your leg, that's a bad pain or soreness, to strengthen muscles you didn’t know you had, this creates a beautiful soreness.

Love your videos. Professional filming. Up here in Santa Barbara we have a 1929 structure made of nothing but terracotta. Inside and out. Over the decades the old non-reinforced terracotta is melting-due to our wetter (humid) climate of today. We have been dealing with efflorescence forever it seems. That leads to a de-bonding of any sort of paint work on the terra-cotta which had a stucco coat over it. For repairs I’m scrapping all the loose stuff off and then applying a pinkish bonding agent, and after 24 hrs I use stucco patch. Blending that stuff is some what difficult. Would adding some measured amount of lime to that stucco patch make it a little more creamy to work with? I don’t want to be experimenting like putting plaster over that stucco. By the way, this is for my interior walls. Or, as an alternative, put a binding agent on that entire wall and then go over it with top coat? Ideas? Many thanks. Keep filming. We all appreciate the work you do.

Hi Edgy, the pink, "Plaster Weld" is made by Larsons and indeed used only for interior use. Clean your walls as best as possible and apply a lime plaster such as Diamond or Imperial finish over any bad area, or even a complete walls. If prepped properly that should last forever. The diamond or Imperial are both easily found at any plastering yard. Both are made by USG, these lime plasters are not affected by interior moisture but should not be used for exterior use. HD says they have it, most don't, so don't spin your wheels, Goole plastering yards near me such as Westside Building Materials, they sell it.👨🏻‍🏫

Kirk, I am asking you this question because in your long experience you may have come across my situation and may possibly have the answer as you may have worked with men who could answer my question but are long dead by now. I would like to know the formula that was used to mix the mortar that was used for bedding wall tile in shower stalls circa 1936. I am replacing a pan in a shower stall that was built in 1936. I had to remove 3 course of wall tile in the process. It appears that the walls were built with a scratch coat of Portland cement and sand over rib lath and that each tile was individually buttered and set with a mortar that is approximately 1 1/4 thick, set and plumed against the scratch coat; the mortar is very white in color and hard. I built a mock-up with a scratch coat of mortar on wire lath to practice setting the tile the in the same way as well as testing the mortar. I have tried mixing type "O" and Type "K" mortars. which do work but are impractical to use because of the slow setting time. I am sure they used something different to set tile like that. Did they use quick lime and sand?

Hey Kirk, first I want to say your videos are extremely helpful, as I am stuccoing my own house that I bought last year. Unfortuntaley I encountered an injury (not serious) and could not complete the finish coat I was working on. It's a small section of the wall above a window (5ft by 1ft). The rest of the wall has been floated except that section and it's too dry to wet and attempt to float. Do you have a suggestions as to how to go about fixing this for me ? The rest of the wall is a sand finish and therefore this section looks very out of place and clearly unfinished. I would appreciate any advice that you may have.
