Stucco finishing helpful tips, How thick can stucco finishes be applied.
Stucco finishing secrets, it’s only secret as even professional plasterers don’t know it can be done.

I’m talking about applying a finish coat more than an eighth of an inch thick and knowing how to stop that thickness from cracking and or spider cracking like an egg.

For those who have no clue as to what “Spider Cracking is?” finish coats are supposed to only be a one-eighth inch thick, or they crack the big time.
If one applies it as thick as I did in this video, we open the applied finish with a sponge float, and this allows the finish coat to breathe so that when it does set, it does not spider crack.
Things that make you go hmmm.

This video below at the end shows what I’m talking about, spider cracking or checking.

We’re showing something I don’t encourage folks to do, applying a color finish thicker than one-eighth of an inch to almost a quarter to a half-inch.

Color coat finishes are engineered to be laid on only one-eighth inch thick. If you apply a color finish on this thick, it will hairline shatter crack.

Now You Know. 😉

Why did I do it? First, I had to get the finish to the same thickness even if there’s laid on improperly. The fact was when it set, I was still able the skip it. Besides, it was to be painted, so any chattering would have been flooded with their primer.

The advantages/benefits of spreading a stucco finish coat color. They are fifty times thicker than paint,
This is why stucco medium or heavy sand finishes cover and hide imperfections in existing stucco finishes and why painting enhances these flaws.
