TECHNICAL DATA
ASTM International
• ASTM C109/C109M Standard Test Method for Compressive
Strength of Hydraulic Cement Mortars (Using 2-in. or [50-mm]
Cube Specimens)
• ASTM C926 Standard Specification for Application of Portland
Cement-Based Plaster
PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
QUIKRETE
®
Finish Coat Stucco is a Portland cement based finishing
plaster complying with ASTM C926 requirements for Type F Plaster.
Typical compressive strength results obtained with QUIKRETE Finish
Coat Stucco, when tested in accordance with ASTM C109, are as
follows:
• 900 psi (6.2 MPa) at 7 days
• 1200 psi (8.2 MPa) at 28 days
Note - The results are based on samples tested at a consistency of
65 - 75 mm using a cone penetrometer.
INSTALLATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
Proper surface preparation is essential to the successful application
of Finish Coat Stucco. All surfaces must be clean, structurally sound,
and free of any loose or foreign material.
MIXING
WEAR IMPERVIOUS GLOVES, such as nitrile when handling
product.
• Blend approximately 2 gal (7.6 L) of water per 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag or
1.25 gal (4.7 L) per 50 lb (22.7 kg) bag
• Place water in the mixer and slowly add the Finish Coat Stucco
• Mix 2 - 3 minutes or until a mortar-like consistency is achieved. Add
additional water in small amounts if necessary
• Use QUIKRETE Acrylic Fortifier (#8610) when application is being
made to basecoats that have previously dried or when applying to
QUIKWALL Surface Bonding Cement (#1230) surfaces
• When QUIKRETE Acrylic Fortifier is required as an internal bonding
compound, replace 1/2 gal (1.9 L) of water with 1/2 gal (1.9 L) of
Acrylic Fortifier per 80 lb (36 kg) bag or 2.5 pt (1.2 L) per 50 lb (23 kg)
bag
Note - Mix only as much QUIKRETE Finish Coat Stucco as can be
applied in 1 hour. Variation in water addition will affect color
uniformity. Do not apply additional water during application. Proper
rewetting of basecoats and finish treatment will eliminate the need for
additional water.
APPLICATION
• WEAR IMPERVIOUS GLOVES, such as nitrile when handling
product.
• QUIKRETE Finish Coat Stucco can be applied with any standard
stucco tool.
