Review Pre-Painting Surface Preparations

K Painting. This is part one of how to prep and paint stucco on an exterior of a home. This house that we're going to be videoing has stuckco on the front, siding in the back, and the sophets all around are wood sophets. And the stucco where the stucco meets the sophet. It typically cracks wherever wood meets the stucco. And so we actually that seam all the way around the house where the stucco meets the sophet. That way you don't see that crack anymore. and it looks nice and finished once it's painted. We also the the door jambs wherever the door jamb meets the stucco, which gives a nice finished look and you won't have a crack there no more. And we make a nice smooth bead of cocking. That way when we cut in our door jamb, you can have a nice perfectly straight line. We go around the vents. Any type of trim batting, we actually all that all the way around the house. Eventually, we're going to get to the side of the house where there's no more stucco, but we got a wood door jam that we've sanded the knot areas and put peel bond on them. The white is the peel bond. We've got down here an area of the stucco that was peeling. The color coat was coming off, so we wire brushed it. Um, and then put a coat of Sherastic, which is an elastame coating over that to help glue and seal it back up. Anywhere where we got cracks in the stucco, we put cocking in the cracks and we smear it around and try to blend it in and feather it in so you don't um see that crack anymore. But you don't want it to be really smooth. So you see a smooth line when it's painted. You want it to blend into the stucco. So you want to work it down into the stucco, just into the crack. We continue around. Do the sophets. And the stucco is going to be painted with Sher Williams flat super paint. And the sophets and the siding will be painted with Sher Williams super paint satin. So the stucco stops right here. We've got a seam here and we've cocked that seam where it stops and then the rest of the house continues with sighting.
