- The chapters below will guide you through the prep and application of foam stucco accents. Many people have asked where to get the foam trim. I live in Orange County California and bought it at a "Foam Select" place in Santa Fe Springs near Los Angeles. You can check around at construction stores in your area (not big box stores like Home Depot) but stores that cater to contractors etc. Check with contractors in your area, they will know where to get these materials.

❤👍This is just an excellent teaching video and an awesome and well done project. Your wife is no doubt lucky to have you as her husband and I can tell you love her dearly. Thank you for taking the time to make such an informative video and God bless you both !
Thank you very much, and thank you for your kind thoughts on Easter Sunday. My wife and I met in high school 56 years ago! She had a total knee replacement last week so this has been a rough patch but we plan to be dancing on New Year's Eve! I hope you had a wonderful holiday, and may God bless you and yours.
I did all my house windows and doors thanks to you. I used the same color and moldings and bought the moldings where you bought your moldings. I redid my whole house panted and new moldings. The house looks new and fresh, once again thank you.
Thank you for your comment, it makes me feel good to have helped you!
Thank you so much, for this awesome video. Now I have the confidence to do this whole process on my house myself. May God bless you!!!
Johann, you can do it! You will find it is really kind of fun. I would recommend using a mixing device on your drill to speed up the mixing process. If you have any questions, just shoot me another comment and I will get back to you. (God blesses me more and more each year so thank you for your blessing)!
Final results are amazing. And looks and you make look so easy because of the way you explain step by step .
Thanks so much 😊 I hope you try it, you will find it to be easy especially if you have a friend to help you. Good luck!
I appreciate you taking the time to create this video. Really helpful 🇺🇸👍

Great video and tutorial! I’m very impressed with your project🤩
Thanks so much! 😊 I hope you try it. By the way, in what state are you viewing my video? I would like to add a pin to my map for all my video replies. Thank you!
phenomenal results and you gave me the confidence to do this myself! thank you!
Glad I could help! Please give it a try. You will be amazed how easy it is and it will stay in place for years. The process is very forgiving, if your corner miters are off, you can simply fill it in with some cementitious goop. Good luck and send me a picture when you are done.
Loved the video! Lots of tips & tricks for those of us contemplating putting this on our home.
Glad you enjoyed it! I hope you take a chance and try it.
Very well Explained and in detail for us novice learners. Look great!!

Great job!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this! We are in Florida...I'm going to give it a try!
Good luck!! The process is very forgiving (you can cover up errors with a "little mud and paint"). Try to get a helper it will even be easier. Let me know how it turns out.
wow you have a such gentle, helpful and welcoming way to teach. thank you! I feel more confident to try this on my own!
Thank you! I was a middle school teacher for 40 years. You can do it! It is really very easy. I did it myself because of Covid lockdown, so if you have a friend it would even be easier. I hope you try it. Invest in a mixer for your drill to help with the mixing. By the way, what state are you in? I like to put a pin in my map for all of my replies. Take care!

This looks amazing, thank you for sharing I'm getting new windows installed so I'd like to freshen up the paint on my house, but I have no trim at all, and all the colors I'm looking at need that trim to pop this is opened up a world of new ideas!
Sounds great! It really isn't that hard. I worked alone, but if you have a friend it could be done in one day.
So many tips in there! I didn't know paint stores sell a funnel thing like that!
I am glad you found the video interesting. I hope you try doing it yourself!
Enjoying your video from California.

BEAUTIFUL and people are able to Sit on it too... EXCELLENT
I paid to have that done.
What a great video! You did an awesome job! I will surely give this a try!
Have fun! This is a nice project and is very forgiving because you can use the cement mixture to erase small cutting errors, etc. Thank you for your kind comment.
Keep your fingers crossed for me, I'm going to try this over vinyl siding! @@gfotinakes316

Wooooow!!! You did that!!! I think I can accomplish this. Only difference is I have some curved windows. Along with Trim already there.
Good luck! It is a lot of fun. I would suggest a friend to help you.

@@gfotinakes316 I’m painting a 1 story 3k sq ft home solo, with a brush and roller, one wall at a time.. Stucco is best rolled, just takes a long time. The only scary part was the chimney!
We just did this for a client on new construction. They sell a mesh tape to seam the joints. Use it
Thank you for the tip, I know that would make the joint even better.

My pleasure! I hope you try this project. By the way, a viewer told me that there is a type of mesh tape that you can use in the joint area to increase the strength of the joint.
I love it.
Thank you! It has been up three years now without a crack and it still looks great. I hope you try it yourself.

You are a BAAAAAD man!!!
Yes, but praise the Lord, Jesus has taken my sins away!
Very pretty, but to be honest I really liked the minimalist, Plain Jane look of just the windows and the stucco. I do like the difference in textures of the patterned stucco and the smooth trim.
Thank you! My wife and I really like the look.
EXCELLENT VIDEO... WOW
I live in New Mexico (US) and SEE this everywhere and wanted it on my stucco house, but until now didn't know how to do it...
Where so you Buy the Foam?
Thank you so much for sharing this great video...
LOVE THIS VIDEO
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, good video! I might do this to my house as my windows are plain looking. I’m not sure how to get around outdoor light switches though
Go for it! Maybe talk to some contractors and ask them for advice. Good luck!
Great job! Hey can I just use a paintable silicon caulking around the perimeter just the same?
I don't know, I am not an expert on this stuff. I think there are two advantages for using the cement type material:
1. It may increase the holding bond made to your stucco.
2. It has a sandy stucco texture that would be less obvious compared to a smooth painted caulk.
If you use the caulk maybe you could try the sanded grout caulking. Let me know how it works out.
Nice.
Thanks! I hope you try it.
WOW great job and beautiful results. I'd like for my windows to look that nice.
Where can I purchase the stucco trim from.?
Thank you! Where are you located? I live in Orange County California and I bought mine at a place called, "Foam Select", in Santa Fe Springs near Los Angeles. You can check around at construction stores in your area (not big box like Home Depot) but stores that deal with contractors etc. Check also with contractors in your area, they will know where to get these materials. Let me know how it turns out.
Great work Makes a nice appealing window Did you use it around the exterior of your doors also or something different
I went around my door only on the sides. The top area was too small for the foam so I cut a piece of wood and painted it the same color. The job on the front of my house was done about 15 years ago and all I have done is freshened up the paint. On the front of the house I used the molding around my garage door and it looks great. On the front job, I also used a larger fancier molding below the windows and just butted the vertical two parts into it.
By the way, what state are you in? I like to put a pin on my map for all of my replies. Take care!
Polybond is not available here in Fl. I would have to buy an entire pallet due to shipping costs. Instead I used Dupont EnerFoam adhesive and sealant. I'm getting ready to try Stucco patch to fill in the gaps. Stucco takes 48 days to dry before painting! The patch recommends 72 hrs. I had to have my stucco treated foam boards shipped from Cal. to Fl. 10 bds. 85" long, 2 pkgs. cost another $155 for shipping!
I am surprised by what you say, the place I buy has just a father and son and a bunch of forms that they use to make the boards and then dip them into the stucco mix. Chris, I think it might be time for you to open a business in Florida for stucco treated foam boards. $$$
Thanks for sharing. I have a brick home. Will this work as well
I honestly can't tell you. I know it would stick to bricks especially with the uneven surface allowing a good grip. The only problem I can see is how to apply a clean edge around the sides. I wish you could experiment somewhere that is hidden from view or on an old wall that you could latter rip it off of.
I don't have any stucco this house but will pass it on to a friend who has stucco. I am surprised to find that you use the same cementitius (sp?) product instead of caulk around the edges to seal the gaps between trim and stucco.
There is a 3 m blue tape that is very thin and very different from normal masking tape and very different from the frog tape I have tried. I guess I would not try it on stucco LOL but thought I would mention it here for interior use. It's called sharp line or something like that, 3M, Scotch. It does two color painting edges like a dream. The frog tape I was talked into when it first came out and we got terrible bleeding using it. So I stick to this Scotch sharp line product.
Thank you for the information. My first attempt with the blue tape had so much bleed- through I would have done better free handing it. I will look for the other blue tape next time. I used the cementitius product around the edges on the front of my house 15 years ago and it is rock solid, no cracks or no leaks. I know a Tom Wind, any relation to you?
That stuff has certainly lasted longer than almost any caulk! (Although, now that I say that, we did use something called NP1 on our house trim, and it was nigh on indestructible. An exterior urethane caulk by Sonneborn. Pain to apply in the cold.)
The Scotch 3M blue sharp line tape should be readily available in big box stores, although more expensive. IMO it's worth it to prevent bleeding on a smooth surface. We stumbled upon it.
I was also reminded of a two coat technique to prevent bleeding on two-coloured edges like this. You've probably seen it as well. I will mention it for future readers. You let the first color dry enough that you can lay the tape on the two-colour edge. (BTW that 3m tape has never pulled off the paint underneath, either. Even when we were really rushing. )
Then you paint on the wrong side of the tape -- where the second color will be -- but with the background color, so that it fills in the edge of the tape, intentially pre-bleeding with a color that will disappear. Then when that dries you can paint your second coloured edge and remove the tape. I have explained badly but hopefully enough that someone can research and find the method if needed.
No relation, thanks, just an online pseuodonym.
I was wondering where you purchased the stucco covered trim. My local home depot does not have it. I live in Northern California near Sacramento. Thanks for all the good advice.
I live in Orange County California and I bought it at a place called, "Foam Select", in Santa Fe Springs near Los Angeles. You can check around at construction stores in your area (not big box like Home Depot) but stores that cater to contractors etc. Let me know how it turns out. I suggest you watch this short video to make a mixer for the cement that would be easier than the salad spoon. czcams.com/video/8pMpiKoaV7s/video.html

Great work and video. Where did you get your mouldings from?

George, beautiful job. Am curious if you have ever painted over your exterior stucco? I want to add the beautiful window trim like you have done but am concerned about adhesion over painted stucco. What has been the durability. Are the sides prone to cracking and thus any water intrusion which if unnoticed cause any damage?
In the video you watched the stucco was only 4 years old and had never been painted over. In the front of my house, I glued it on painted stucco more than 15 years ago. I have never seen a crack or break in the seal the cement "glue" has made with the stucco. I did use some good paint over the primed foam and cement glue. I even scrub the joint of adhesion and blast it with water...no breaks or leaks I am happy to say. Good luck!
I just went out and took two pictures of my earlier job 15+ years ago. Here they are:

@@gfotinakes316 Thanks George! That is great to know. The pictures are very helpful. I am renovating a Spanish style architecture 1920's duplex (also in Southern California like you). Window trim had to be ripped and we went with new construction windows ending up with a modern look on an old building. Maybe I need to get accustomed to it but miss some trim so saw your video. Now I know I can still jazz it up with some durable trim.
hi George good video, just what I was thinking, where did you get the forms?

@@gfotinakes316 Hi George congratulations on your 50 years and thank you for your response . I live in Albuquerque, NM. I am still looking for the material but I haven't looked everywhere I can yet. I will check out the video. Wow, four things in common.
After a year, were you able to attempt your foam trim job yet? If so, how did it turn out?
Styrofoam exterior window and house trim: do the forms come coated with stucco/grout before you paint them, or do you have to apply that too? Prescott AZ
They come already coated with a fairly thick layer of stucco with sand texture. They are also undercoated with paint so they are ready to paint!
Great job! Where can we purchase the foam? This is something my home can definitely use .

Is this easily removable? Let’s say for example later down the line I want to remove the trim to add window shutters instead. Will I be able to remove this trim with out ruining the stucco underneath too much?
I would not try to remove this. It is basically cemented on your stucco and it will probably make a mess to remove it. By the way, what state are you in? I like to put a pin in my map for all of my replies. Take care!
Really liked your video and instruction, very well done. Can you please give me the details on the Foamtek that you used. It comes in different thickness's, fine, medium, medium course and course. The texture that you used would be what I would use for my application. Also having a hard time trying to locate the foam window trim that you used. Can you please give details on the manufacturer and where you purchased it?

@@gfotinakes316 Do you know which thickness for the foamtek? There is fine, med and course?
All I know about the place where we bought our foam was its name Foam Select and its location Santa Fe Springs near LA. It was a father-son business and I don't know if they survived the pandemic. I don't know what thickness I used, are you referring to the thickness of the coat of cement? I know it is fairly rough in texture. Have you checked with contractors and builders in your area? Have you searched for Foam Select? Here is what I found online:
Foam Select
8807 Pioneer Blvd Ste A, Santa Fe Springs, CA, 90670
(562) 908-6111
My phone number is 714-345-0793 Good luck!
This is exactly what I was looking for! I was wondering if this is something you can to prevent water leaking.. I think water is leaking bc of my stucco and there is nothing surround the window..
Good luck in sealing up your house. Merry Christmas!
Is that polysterene molding???...i'd like to ask what paint is preferable to this molding...is latex paint is okay?
Most of the molding is styrofoam. It then appears to be covered with a mesh of maybe fiberglass. Then it is dipped into cement-like material. Finally it is undercoated with latex paint. I used latex stucco paint on mine and it worked well.
By the way, what state are you in? I like to put a pin in a map for all of my replies. I hope this helped, take care!

You could probably use some- thing from a caulking gun. The cementitious material I used was not difficult. In the future I would just use a mixer attached to my drill. If you’re interested on my CZcams channel I show how you can make one of these pretty easily, I know you can buy them too. Just keep looking around and checking with people it’s worth the trouble because it really makes your house look much nicer in my opinion.
Awesome. I’m gonna stucco my wife’s she shed. EIFS
Good luck, take your time, it's really kind of fun to do.
Can you do a video on how to fix the foam if a part of it gets damaged?
I had a place damaged by a falling tree branch. You just mix up some of the stucco-like material and rub it into the damaged area re-creating the original shape. Wait a few minutes then wipe it with a wet terry cloth until it matches the surrounding area.

Thank you for all your kind complements. I too am staying very active now at 74. Biking, writing, wood working, and CZcams posting, all as hobbies. I live in Orange County California so my source for foam trim will not help you. I would suggest that you talk to local contractors or builders and ask them where they buy their materials. I hope you and your husband try this on your house. It is actually kind of fun and with two people helping each other out, it would be easy.

By the way, in what state are you viewing my video? I would like to add a pin to my map for all my video replies. Thank you!
where do you get that stucco trim?
I live in Orange County California and I bought it at a place called, "Foam Select", in Santa Fe Springs near Los Angeles.

@@gfotinakes316 I will probably try silicone adhesive since my stucco is a lot smoother than yours and recently painted. Yeah, i checked lowes and they don't seem to have anything like this.
What is the name of that material

Can I cut it with power sliding saw?
It will cut very easily with any power saw. Just watch out for the dust and dulling of blades.
@@gfotinakes316 thank you!
@@liberty756 If you don’t mind me asking, what state are you writing from? (I like to put a pin on my map for each reply I get.)
Afternoon I see you live in Orange County? Same here, is there anyway you’d be willing to do this to our home? We have stucco in our home. I’d pay of course. Let us know.
I will be 74 years old this year and I can still do this on my own house because I can work at a slow pace and do one window a day over a number of days. Thank you for the offer but I am not able to do work like for others.
I am sure if you:
1. get a couple of friends and show them the video on how to do the job
2. buy the materials at "Foam Select", in Santa Fe Springs
3. paint the materials with at least one coat of paint before you start
You will do a great job!
@@gfotinakes316 I admire you’re capabilities to ge it done yourself. Okay I’ll do that
Great job ! Where do I find this foam stucco trim, I’ve looked on line and I was t able to find any
Thank you! I only know where I got it in Southern California. You might check commercial building supply stores. Another thing you can try is calling up some local contractors and ask where they purchase the product. Good luck!
WARNING:
Wear a MASK while using the DRY mix
You got me on that!
Best
Thank you Charly, I hope you give it a try! Have a great summer.
Would of been a good one, except for not giving info where you purchased the form boards
Since CZcams videos go all around the world my local source is usually not helpful.

Bravo George 😂
Σας ευχαριστούμε για το σχόλιό σας. Bill, ζεις στην Ελλάδα; Οι παππούδες μου ήταν από την Κορώνη Μεσσηνίας
By the way, that message was from Google translate, I hope it was understandable.
Hello again George, sorry to disappoint you , but l'm in Australia. I'm one of those Greek Aussies
i heard birds make holes in the foam...is it true?
I have had mine on the front of my house for about 15 years, no holes at all. I must say that I am in Southern California and in my area there are almost no woodpeckers. If you live in a location with woodpeckers, ask some folks that have foam on their buildings, it is used everywhere. By the way, in what state are you viewing my video?

You should try it on your house, you and your son could work together!
Did try it I went well I think but have to see once I paint it
Just in case if someone wants to say something that wasn't done properly...at the end of the video is just the only argument he will use to defend himself... "Wife is happy with the job done".
That's it. No more comments. 😂😂😂😂😂
You are right about that Alberto! She is still happy with it 5 years later.
