Rapid Set® Stucco Patch Offers Fast-Setting, Durable Option for Stucco Repair
Cypress, CA – September 2009 — Stucco is known as one of the premier materials for adding aesthetic appeal to any structure. However, damage can occur to the finish over time, which makes repairs necessary. In today's economic climate, many are looking for repair solutions that are quick and durable — solutions that offer a fast set-up time and allow for same day job completion. Rapid Set® Stucco Patch is the optimal repair solution. Because of its high-performance cement formulation, the material may be applied full-depth in a single application without shrinking or cracking. Stucco Patch contains 16-20 grit sand to match any texture, and may be coated within two hours. Used for the repair of cracks, holes and voids in stucco surfaces, Stucco Patch is weather resistant and can be used for exterior and interior stucco surfaces.
Typically, stucco repair materials are applied in three coats (scratch coat, brown coat and finish coat). However, Stucco Patch enables the contractor to apply a full-depth repair in one application. According to Mike Van Kleeck, Paint Line Sales Manager, "When mixed with water, Stucco Patch produces a rich, easy-to-apply mixture with excellent bonding characteristics, even over previously painted vertical surfaces".
Unlike other stucco repair products, Stucco Patch is formulated with premium grade hydraulic cement, high performance water-soluble polymers and high quality aggregates. The advanced formula maintains paint, gloss and color. Offering a 90-minute complete stucco repair solution, the surface can be painted as soon as the product has cured. Other stucco repair products can take days or weeks to dry and allow for painting. Stucco Patch is available in 2-pound and 10-pound boxes, as well as 25-pound and 50-pound bags.
