To our subscribers, Jason, myself, and sons, show or teach all who wish to learn to apply or spread the first or scratch coat of stucco how to do it.
Keep in mind in the middle of this video, I could or should have used a two dollars throw-away paintbrush to brush the short-flanged corners at the eaves in instead of a song float which I had at my disposal to clean my hawk and trowel, then used a scratcher to scratch the coat I just applied.
We often do many things at once to show all the shortcuts or methods we use.
