Great explanation and presentation of different textures and the dialogue was also superb. Thank you for taking the time to do this for us

[@newtringo1757]

Thank you for posting the video on doing stucco repair. I used Rapid Set to patch a corner area of my home that had a chunk (about the size of a deck of cards) broken off from a lawn mower hit by our gardeners. Your video provided a thorough explanation of how to do simple repairs that helped a lot. Finally, for those negative critics of the video, please post your own stucco repair video with a link to it in your message and show everyone how stucco repairs are to be properly done.

In my Google search that brought me here, I was hoping to find a kit that would include the steel screen that he's calling substrate. A repair kit for the scenario where a plumber cut through the wall for example, not a stucco-only hole where the stucco somehow just fell off in one spot for some reason, but the substrate is still there ready to cover

Good video though before I start applying the stuco to hair line cracks or filling in areas should the paint be taken off in other words you dont want to stuco over areas that have paint on it?

[@CTSRapidSet]

Hello, a fog coat can be accomplished 2 hours after Stucco Patch is applied. The only thing is our product is not as porous as regular portland stucco. So make sure to not spray onto Stucco Patch before the 8 hour mark. Also, the fog coat doesn't stick to painted surfaces so make sure that it's all new stucco. If you have further questions, please call us at 800-929-3030.

[@Mr50pop]

this guy is a sales man and not a plaster.

[@rockothecat1935]

Mr50pop So what you are saying is that he is not a professional plaster so if he can do repairs, anyone can do repairs?

[@Mr50pop]

Anyone can slap some material on a wall call it a repair if that's what you are looking for. The end results is what is important to me. The repairs he's doing is on a painted panel , every thing he is doing cant be done on a regular unpainted wall . The moister will be sucked out of the material before you will have time to use any of the floats. He doesn't tell you that in the video. All the repairs could have done with the green float only and not having to use his dumb way of back hand rubbing. I could go on and on . This video is for the people with painted homes or building that don't really care end result's are as long as its it is patched cause were painting it anyway. I grew up in the plastering trade from 12 years old to now at 53 years old. I could not do what he is doing to other people homes and expect them to be happy nor get paid. But then again its nice to also get paid from people that just messed up their home with some thing they got from a big box store thinking its EZ , I seen it done in a video...

[@rockothecat1935]

Mr50pop I don't want to argue whether this guy knows anything, but my friend and I used this product on his house where he hit it with his car by accident and you can't see where the damage is anymore and we're just a bunch of DYI'ers. (we also work on our own cars, replace light bulbs, electrical switches and fix leaking sinks, repair Xbox and DS... all by watching videos on youtube). So its a great product!

[@Mr50pop]

great video, thank you. I want to fix some stucco cracks on the wall. Is it possible to add stucco color (dry/liquid) into the RapidSet stucco patch to match the current wall color? It doesn't have to be exactly matching the existing color through.

[@CTSRapidSet]

+Frank Fu thank you and apologies for the delayed response. Just seeing your question. Yes, ether one can be used - The Liquid Quick Create brand or the La Habra Dry brand. For the dry brand make sure you add it to the water before you mix.

[@bryku]

this guy is a boss.

[@michaelkimball6901]

I used the product on several cracks and found the material to be very strong and easy to work with. The only issue I have is that the way you illustrate a crack repair actually sometimes leaves a small indentation where the crack is - then you need to put a little more on top to level that out - then, that causes a small bulge in the area of the crack and on a wall that is in line with the setting sun, those bulges are unsightly. Any suggestions? I assume you would need to blend that bulge way out which I don't think this material is really the best for that. Any thoughts?

[@Kinetics19]

Try running a paint scrapper blade along the edges of the crack. It creates a bit of a bevel that helps feather the patch into the wall. Don't be afraid to feather out a few inches on each side if you can match the texture. Also, you'll get a depression if you don't fully fill the crack. It can take a few passes of really pressing the stucco into the crack to fully fill it.

[@1stFlyingeagle]

So you don't need to use any bonding agent? If so what is the guide lines when and when not to?

[@CTSRapidSet]

Hi Robert, Stucco Patch has a good amount of polymers, therefore additional bonding agents aren't required.

I have smooth stucco on my outside deck with a portion that has been restructured and scratchcoated but not finished and with no color coat. Could I use this as a smooth finish repair for that and just apply acrylic paint over the top?

[@CTSRapidSet]

Hi Jonathan. Rapid Set Stucco Patch or Stucco Mix can be used as a smooth coat stucco finish over your scratch coat. Both of these products are exceptional for stucco repair. Stucco Patch has a thicker 16-20 grit sand texture that allows you to complete any stucco finish if needed. Stucco Patch can be painted after 2 hours, and Stucco Mix can be painted after 16 hours. If you have further questions, let us know.

Could this be used for a large crack from a slider door header dropping and pulling window? Crack is about 4-5 ft long about average 2 inch wide. Not a hairline crack

[@CTSRapidSet]

Yes, Rapid Set Stucco Patch can be used for large applications and deep fill. Here are some helpful tips when working with Stucco Patch. 1. Properly prepare the area that you intend to patch and remove any loose pieces. 2. Have all of your tools and supplies organized, prior to mixing . 3. Keep in mind this is a fast-setting material, so mix only what you can use in a 15 to 20 minute working window. 4. Apply material to full depth in one application, and do not layer. Please let us know if you have other questions.

Hi Mike. Yes, you can spray it through a hopper and it will perform well. Here are a few tips. 1. This is a fast-setting material, so don’t let it sit in the hopper for long. 2. Make sure you spray without stopping to ensure you don’t clog the hopper. 3. Clean out the hopper well immediately after. Please let us know if you have further questions.

[@rubenestrada8819]

could you dry it with a heat gun who?

[@CTSRapidSet]

Hi Ruben, Rapid Set Stucco Patch is a rapid-setting repair material, that will deliver strength within 1 hour after placement. If you would like to accelerate the material and make it even faster, you can use warm water. This will accelerate the setting time, and cause the material to harden and dry much faster. Using a Heat Gun can cause premature hydration which could lead to surface cracking. You would have better consistent results by using warm water. Let us know if you have further questions.
