  6. Following the manufacturer’s directions on the label, mix the appropriate ratio of stucco patch and water in an empty plastic 5-gallon container.

    TIP: This product dries quickly. Mix only enough stucco patch material for a 15–20 minute application.

  7. Using a rubber float, press the patching material into the damaged area. Spread no more than a ¼” thick layer into the hole. Allow it to set. Continue to apply stucco patch material in ¼” layers until it is flush with the existing surface.

    TIP: For small holes, fill the damaged area with paintable high quality caulking material before continuing with the stucco patch.

  8. Before the last coat of patching material dries, remove any excess material using a clean rubber float in a circular sweeping motion. Blend the repaired area into the existing texture. Allow the area to dry.

    TIP: Clean your tools directly after use.
