Painting Stucco & Repairing Cracks With Caulking & Elastomeric Paint

What happens here

Chris, the Idaho painter, begins by explaining the nature of the project: painting a stucco house that has numerous hairline cracks, some of which are quite large. He attributes the extensive cracking to the stucco likely being applied during wintertime in Boise, Idaho, which can lead to improper curing and subsequent cracking. The customer's primary objective is to hide all cracks, even if the caulk line becomes somewhat visible, as they prefer this over the unsightly cracks.

Goal: Understand the scope of stucco damage and customer requirements for crack concealment.

What they say

Hide

Chris, the Idaho painter. In this video, we're actually painting a Stuckco house. It has a lot of cracks in it. This house, it's got extreme amount of cracks, hairline cracks, and a lot of them. They're even larger than that. It was probably stuckcoed in the wintertime up here in Boise, Idaho, which is a very common practice, which causes this stuckco to not cure properly and get hairline cracks in it all over. And now we're attempting to hide all those cracks and and get rid of them for the customer. The customer wants this Stuckco to not have any cracks anymore.
