Dude I've been hooked on stucco videos all week. Do I have autism or do I just appreciate seeing a skilled tradesman? Maybe it's both.
@@SamHaugen Good evening Sam Dude, man, I like your style, thank you. Maybe just maybe you have a stucco home and prefer to save the dough for holidays and repair your stucco yourself? 😉🕵🏼♀️
Kirk’s the best! 😊 never gets old.
@@feeblewrk5788 Man, I sho-Nuf like your style. Thank you.
As a retired plasterer I understand everything you do and you do not disappoint 😊
@@rjritsema Wow, the ultimate compliment. Thank you my fellow retired plasterer.
I don’t know how Kirk keeps his cool with that heat. Right in the sun with no shade. Much respect to you and your crew.
@@ishh9315 Oddly enough, the heat don’t effect me much, now my brother Luuuu, hates working in the heat.
Kirk is a legend. Who else puts in a hard days work and then replies to every comment whole heartedly. ❤ Say hi to loouuu for the boys!
@@feeblewrk5788 Good afternoon my friend, thank you for the kind words. 😉
This guy is the real deal, and a great teacher too
@@TheWallsocket Good morning Socket Dude, I like your style, thank you.
Always a pleasure watching your videos.
@@davisjackson1754 Mr. Jackson, thank you for those kind words. 😉
WOW, I look away for a second and it's a perfect match.
@@raytracer2651 Lol, this took us three professionals all day to do, naturally we lost an hour or two with filming instead of just getting it done. Cheers 😉
Kirk...I get my iPad and just before I go to sleep, I relax and watch your videos...very enjoyable and educational...great wholesome content.
@@madelinescafe8573 Good evening Madeline, we try and stay rated G, like the old movies, Bewich, That girl, Star Trex, Andy Griffin and so on, as a rule anyway. It have a daughter named Madeleine, spelled a bit different. Have a wonderful wholesome evening. 😉
You do it, Kirk!!! You tell that mud who's boss
@@gypsydildopunks7083 evening Punk Dude, the mud knows who boss but still keeps on trying. It’s like the lonesome loser but it still keeps on trying. czcams.com/video/XIle_6Vzm5A/video.htmlsi=Q7BNcSM1w7uGe191/
My grandpa had a stucco company back in the day in lake havasu city . Alot of respect to you guys out there in the triple digits and still care about quality craftsmanship.
@@bgreasy6318 Morning my Greasy friend, thank you. I happen to love the heat, but my brother Luuuu cooked like a French Fry. 🌞
Super nice work, Kirk. Love watching the pros doing the job the way it should be done and fast.
@@vinceburris2538 Howdy Vince, thank you for the kind comment.
dear Kirk,love your videos. Greetings from Zagreb,Croatia.
@@stipepoljak1985 Hello Stipe, thank you, Zagreb, Croatia, is mighty far from us all right. Cheers . 😉
Love your videos Kirk!
@@russellranchoutdoors731 Howdy Russell Dude, cool beans, daddieo.
I really look forward to your new videos. Your team did a great job at my house
Good morning Sherlock, homes is it? Thank you for the kind comment. Which home did we do for you? I think I would have remembered working for a detective from Scotland Yard.cheers 😉
Another great video!
@@executivepainting5445 Thank you, executive painting dude.
Nice work, Kirk!
@@twosixtyninechatter653 Thank you, numbers dude.
I would have enjoyed working with these guys when I was younger...the knowledge is deep...thanks for always making these videos
@@billiamc1969 Thank you Bill, the knowledge is deep as throughout my years, I have always realized, do it wrong, I’m obligated to return and do it right on my time. I have had to a few times. This mind set makes one subconsciously aware the importance of retaining material knowledge. As most can stucco, but longevity is more important. Cheers my brother. 😉
great job Kirk
@@ernestogonzalez17 Thank you, Ernesto.
10 out of 10 job ( as usual )
Quality expansion joint
Team effort
“ Kirk’s the best ( : “
👍🏼🇦🇺
@@photodoc100 Morning Doc Dude, Correctomundo, what we’re doing hear is a team effort. It took My son Jason, over two hours to break this out so perfectly. While he was doing the drag of break out I was testing a new bag of Lumnite. We all stay busy. Harmony is the ticket for success.
Awesome job, I appreciate you explaining the work
@@GreenKizurra Thats the fun part.
Great work, excellent explanation.
@@SuperJrod01 Evening Super Dude, and here I thought most folks would not understand most of what we were doing. Cheers.
Awesome job fellas! Big Lou sighting in this video. Just finished up 2 coats on large radius cmu block walls for a 12' garden stairway I made in the triple digits. Saturated the block but still soaked it up so quick it was crazy! Kirk's chip brush idea has helped me so many times over the years especially on the inside corners. Your videos made me a natural at this. Thanks as always.
@@willsachs Morning Will Dude, for block, bricks or concrete, we just soak them longer until the water penetrates as deep as possible, give us as much time as needed. Cheers my fellow plasterer. 😉
Excellent as usual.
@@psuengineer84 Morning Mr. Engineer Dude, thank you.😉
Awesome video!
@@Lobsterdollar Thank you my friend.
Watched a good plaster guy a few years ago repair an entire wall of a 100yr old home and it was amazing. It was near perfect, didnt take too long and wall still holds up today..its a craft im no good at.
@@theoneandonly4464 You’re the one and only dude who can do your job, we all have our choice of craft. Cheers. 😉
Not bad, not bad , I love how you installed that expansion joint where it needed to be and the transition looks amazing!
@@johndonaldson7043 evening John Dude, it tried to play hard to get, but slide right in like white on rice and came out, perfectamundo, as always. 😉
Is there no end to your BRILLIANCE.!!! Kirk.
@@TheObSeRvErTheObSeRv Evening Observer Dude, With material knowledge everything is possible. Jay, luuu and I have harmony with the products as to what they can do to what they can’t. Thus another day at an office with no air-conditioning. Luuu, melted like a chocolate bar in the sun on this day.🌞
@@StuccoPlastering Yeah seen Luuu, in the back ground i bet he was shedding those kilo`s and thats not in stucco. lol. hope YOU and FAM are doing well Kirk.
@@TheObSeRvErTheObSeRv Thank you, we’re off to the Alameda, Art and wine Fair. Today. Cheers.
That looks great
@@spreadcreekjr1731 Coming from a fellow Spread Dude, thank you.
I agree with the comments, we love your videos and the teachings
Fabricioe Dude, thank you for that kind comment. Cheers much more to come. 😉
“HEY KIRK” 😂❤
@@mattescoto2882 Hey Dude😉
Awesome work Kirk,wish you would move to Colorado!😂❤
@@jimgordon2399 Howdy Jim Dude, never been to Colorado, but have read hundreds of westerns which have likened the area to. We’re due for a change but was hoping more towards the equator for the heat. Cheers.
Pure Gold ,,, Love it !!
I am wondering if Kirk could do a video on masking off windows and doors.
I use the red vinyl tape, but am sure there are some tips and tricks that would help us along the way.
@@als1023 Evening my friend, ask and ye shall receive. There is indeed a technique with tearing the tape and covering, type in “how to cover windows and doors before stucco” there is nothing in regards to stucco we have not explained in the 15 years of making them, as I have an over active mind when it comes to stucco.😉
@@StuccoPlastering Found it thanks Kirk. !
What is the new plastic you covered the doors and windows with ?
Translucent type material.
@@als1023 if at say, “ Westside Building Materials” you would buy the 2 or 4 mill plastic for covering windows or doors. Heavy Duty Reinforced Poly Sheeting is what we use. Cheers
@@StuccoPlastering Got it, thank you !
@@als1023 Cool beans, daddieo
great work like always
@@lakers165 Good evening Lakers Dude, thank you, it was another day at the office.
Hey Kirk was wondering if you know if there is accelerators in Sakrete scratch&brown in 80lb bags. I've been using it & seems like it sets up pretty fast for not having accelerators listed on the bag.
@@redline8928 Sakrete, quikrete, Rapid set, Greencore all have accelerators. Any stucco bag sold at H D or Lowe’s that says, “scratch and brown, Same day has accelerators, two weeks ago, we posted a video titled, “stucco and concrete accelerators” we used Lumnite. It sets when we want it to. In two minutes to an hour depending on our needs. 😉
@@StuccoPlastering Thanks for the knowledge. Can I add luminite or another product to retard the set time of this product. I work solo on my house, and really had a hard time keeping up mixing, applying and scratching before it was too stiff to scratch the one 18ft wall after dryrot repair. I got it done, but need to slow it down for the browncoat, especialy since the heat up, I did the scratch in the fall of last year. patching around windows and doors , I don't think I'll have a problem with when I browncoat, but I think I'm going to have a problem making the 18ft wall strait. I need to slow it down so I can use the darby on the wall to make it strait and not look all patchwork wavy or lumpy bumpy. Any help with a product to add to retard setting? That's actually a stupid question, because of course you know, you're the stucco king. Thanks for making it look easy so I had the confidence to try it myself on my home, gettting the practice in, and I ended up adding another tool to my handyman business, Turns out I'm pretty good at repairing stucco, matching textures. Always been good with mud. Just like interior only rugher, heavier and harder on the body😅 Learned how to do it right from you, and makes for a quick easy money job. It's stressful, because I don't have the 40yrs under my belt, but I do strive for perfection in everything I do and stand by my work. Thanks for documenting all your work and being a good teacher.
@@redline8928 Howdy Redliner Dude, there is a very easy way to do a lining wall, we just did a 60 foot wall that was scratched weeks prior in about 104 temperature. Simply soak the wall down until it no longer absorbs the water. It can’t be dripping wet when you apply mud but moist. This can give you hours of extra time even in heat over 100 degrees. Naturally, it will take awhile to float and it dry. 😉
@@StuccoPlastering Oh ok. Right on. Glad to learn that. I was going to soak already, just didn't know it had that benifit, but makes sense. I know you preach to soak it so it doesn't suck the mud dry but just didn't put that part of the equation together. Thanks again brother. You are the best! Trust me on that, I've watched all the rest and none come close to your knowledge, ability and execution. Stay hydrated and loaded up on electrolytes, This Cali summer is no joke July. Little bit of releif this week, but even in the bay area it's just been nasty. I'm in Sacramento area. 108-111 was hard to work in at all, but I was down with a ankle injury most of the nasty, so never a better time for an injury.
@@redline8928 Absolutely, I had many friends in Vacaville and Sacramento area come down and work with us in 102 temps which it was that day, but much more sucks the life out of you when applying stucco. We’re no spring chickens anymore. 🐣
Great video !
@@evertabora Thank you kind sir.
You the man Kirk
@@stiofanhallzy5750 You are too kind, thank you,
Looks great
Thanks!
KIRK JAY LU TRUE GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS 💪
@@chorgzent.3978 Lol, we’re stucco warriors with a record past Floyd’s Money Maywheather. I think he’s 50 and 0. We’re in the thousands and 0. Which means we’re still undefeated too.🕺🏼💃
hahaha lou said
Thanks for the tip
live on CZcams lol 😂
@@melisanyo_0 Luuu had a gravy day, but he cooked in the sun. Luuu prefers cool days, Jay and I love these triple digit days.🌞
What I would have done is called Kirk!
@@Surfin4clues evening Surfer Dude, man, I like your style. Thank you.
Kirk, i recently got a home and i have seen cracking on the side of my chimney. I thought it was a failure of the homes build quality, but you just said that its caused by vibrations and settling. What kind of caulk can i use to seal up the cracks?
@@Lobsterdollar I’d recommend Mor-Flexx it’s an acrylic with sand in it.
@@StuccoPlasteringi’ll look into it and let you know the results. Thanks man! Your videos (new and older ones) are full of talent and skill.
@@Lobsterdollar Thank you Lobster Dude.
Thank you!
No Problemo
Any chance you do work in Washington state? Have plenty of video opportunities since the stucco work here is abysmal, and my house needs quite a bit of work! :)
@@nicks4260 Lol, no, Washington is a bit too far for us to travel. We could make a thousand videos here in a month, but making videos doubles the time on any job. Cheers
How much are they get paid in hour for professional plaster/stucco/ in California.. thank you
@@zainmeree6788 Anywhere from food stamps to 400 a day. 😉
Do you anyone good in the Tucson Area
@@TrojanMan321 No, sorry.
Rumor has it plaster goes to bed at night wearing Kirk pajamas
@@stiofanhallzy5750 Howdy Hallzy Dude, I think it’s like me and sleeps in the buff, it too can’t be confined.🕵🏼♀️😉
Superb
@@lmilne4859 Thank you my friend. Just takes practice.
