Lathing stud walls with self-furred stucco paperback wire before stucco.
Waterproofing stud walls before stucco.
This stud wall required the use of fiberglass mesh added to help it hang as it’s two inches or more between the studs, and there is no backing. To see it applied in one coat of stucco, click here.

How lathing stud wall with self-furred paperback wire is made possible and why.
The reason why self-furring paper and wire were used for?
When I first started in the stucco trade.
All homes were only studs.
Plywood backing didn’t become code until about 1980.
Thus, as workers, we had to stretch out the stucco netting.
If we didn’t, a wall that would generally require about a ton of stucco to plaster would now take a lot more due to the waste between the suds because of no solid backing.
FYI, the self-furred paperback wire has the paper infused or attached.
We’re using a self-furred paperback wire with paper attached, and paper and wire are integrated or entwined.
Thus you don’t lose too much stucco between the stud or in the field.
Why is this important? When you have the paper and wire integrated, the paper and wire are interwoven, so when stretching the stucco netting, the paper stretches with it.
That paper pull taunt acts as a backer or solid substrate when you stretch the paper.
You can stretch both paper and stucco wire together, making the stucco netting and paper much tighter on the wall. Therefore when applying stucco between the field, you won’t waste stucco between the field.
The stucco will generally be only one inch over a stud.
As that stud is not going to be pushed inwards.
However, if the paper and wire are loose, one can lose between 2 to 5 inches of excess stucco between each stud bay.
