Wouldn’t it be cool if “every patch was a perfect match”? It might be fantastic, but unrealistic?
Matching stucco finishes is like fingerprints. We all have different ones.

All you homeowners or DIY folks can do this, the corner might be tricky, but you can always wet a small two-by-four as a template.

The key is to remove all the loose stucco and clean the brick surface very well.
Now paint a bonding agent on the old brick and the surrounding perimeter.
You can use Quikrete sold at home depot. A bottle costs less than ten bucks.
Now mix the stucco.
You can buy a twenty-five-pound box of Rapid Set Stucco, also sold at Home Depot or lowes.
Mix it in a bucket and apply it over the missing stucco. Lastly, blend it in.
You might also invest in a green sponge float for about 7 dollars.
These sponge floats help blend the finish in well.

Below are a few more videos of stucco being applied over cement surfaces.

Thank you all for watching, and wishing all a great day!

Howdy Nick, That’s right you’re in the UK right?
Man, I would have thought you would have more than us over there than in the US.
It seems as fast as we learn a new and updated stucco system, along comes another new and improved stronger same day stucco system.
Nowhere near how fast computer updating but it’s getting there.

Thanks for watching and have a great day!

Hey Kirk, my dad really enjoys watching your videos. Hes been a plasterer for over 30 years. He was very impressed by the patch. People dont appreciate the technique it takes to match a texture....especially not lallenh1 :) Anyway, keep it up and always honor and enjoy your craft.

I like your videos but a simple question Mr.Kirk why you never write the type of materials are you using to do this great works you make, thanks...

[MrRIZZ-helv]

Wow did they put that on with a shovel!

Hey Kirk!
Do you ever use the "stucco patch"labeled bags by rapid set?And whats the difference from what your using here vs the stucco patch?
Or is it the same thing.

hey Kirk. great vids! enjoying going through the catalogue of videos and learning a bunch. anyway, regarding this job here, would you know leave that to set and harden by itself or would you need to occasionally re-wet it with a water spray or something? also, one more while I'm here! what is the binding compound/product you use?! best regards David
