hi mate, ive sat and watched a whole load of your videos. im a plasterer
from scotland and its good to get some other points of view on how
plasterers operate, i will most definitley be trying out some of your tips
and styles of plastering to see if i can incorperate them into my working
day…keep up the good work my friend and keep the uploads coming….any
good practical jokes to play on the new guys?…sick of slitting bags of
finish when getting the new guy to lift them above his head 😀

Great tips, thanks for posting. Can you recommend wall preparation for
applying Diamond veneer plaster over bare sheet rock (taped and mudded)? I
have removed wall paper, and need to skim coat the walls, but all the info
I have found recommends blue board. I would prefer to not hang new
wallboards. Should I skim coat w/ durabond, then finish coat with Diamond?
I will probably be adding some sand for texture, in case that matters…

why do you do this kind of job in multiple layers? takes al lot of time
… here in holland i would do this in a single layer with gypsum plaster.
we have got materials which work well up to 40-50 millimetres thick layers
, just mix it a little stiff en you can do it in one layer…. rod it a
couple of times and your wall is true and plumb . gr patrick

Thanks Kirk, I appreciate the vids I have watched a ton of them. It’s
really great to see a tradesman who takes a lot of pride in their work.
Just some informative well done vids. I have been a trim carpenter in
northern nj for the past 20 years and I like to think I take as much pride
in my work as you do. Keep the vids coming!

Why didn’t you use a mesh or paper tape on the Sheetrock to mud joint?
Won’t that crack?

Hi Kirk,
Thanks for your videos, they’re a wealth of information! I’m Dutch too, but
have been working as a hands-on GC in Los Angeles for the past 8 years. I
think Bieske21 is referring to one of the Knauf brand products which are
very popular in North Western Europe. Here, on the West Coast of the US, I
like the ‘One Pass’ compound made by Rapid Set. It’s a little more
expensive, but ideal for smaller repair jobs. My question for you: does the
concrete bonding agent that you apply function as a waterproofer between
the concrete and mud as well? Keep ’em coming…I’ll see you on the next
one 🙂
Thanks,
Emille

Thanks for all the great videos! What kind of plaster are you using? And
where would I be able to get it?

Good morning 24t68Jm1, any bonding agent that’s mixed in the material won’t
work, ever in my opinion. A bonding agent t for plaster or stucco must
always be applied to the wall. No Exceptions. Have a great day! And thanks
for watching. Kirk Giordano Plastering

superb thankyou.

Morning Kelly Krauth, If you use taping mud it will require many coats,
however you wouldn’t need a bonding agent. I would use the bonding agent
available where you purchase the fast patch drywall compound. I use west
pac’s 20 minutes mud myself, if you need more time you can purchase 40, 60,
or 90 minutes muds. If you can’t find west pac’s buy a different brand that
is simular. Thank you for watching and have a great day! Kirk Giordano

You guys are awesome — Thanks for showing the mix process. Question for
you — Do you have to worry about the seams between the mud and sheet rock
cracking in the future? This kind of situation comes up for me all the time
as my house is a mish-mash of all kinds of wall materials.
KellyKrauth · September 14, 2014 at 10:41 PM
Kirk, I have been watching a lot of your videos- loving them. Anyway, I
have a home where the previous owners did a large thick texture on the
drywall. I want to plaster over this. Is there a bonding agent for drywall
and what plaster product would you recommend?
Kirk & Jason Giordano's DIY plastering and stucco network · September 14, 2014 at 11:24 PM
Howdy lakes dude, thank you. If we were applying over sheetrock we would
mesh all the joints but this did not require any mesh tape. Thanks for
watching and have a good evening. Kirk Giordano plastering
Peter Agostini · September 15, 2014 at 12:25 AM
Kirk, does the bonding agent seal the wall from moisture say if it is below
ground? T.U nice work.
Kirk & Jason Giordano's DIY plastering and stucco network · September 15, 2014 at 1:00 AM
Howdy Peter, thank you, I am asked this question often, Not really, it
simply makes certain the plaster adheres. Have a good evening. Kirk

Howdy JM, I have seen over 20 homes where the color coat come off in
sheets the first month after application from folks putting the bonding
agent in the mix instead of going the extra mile and applying it on the
surface. (Painted surfaces only) Fortunately I learned this fact when I
worked as union plasterer; unfortunately, I have learned many things the
hard way too. Have a great day and thanks for watching. Kirk Giordano
