Why do stucco finishes fail or separate? Is it usually a dusty wall to start off with.
Some stucco or plastering contractors, especially the younger fellas, don't realize the key to stucco finish longevity is clean walls with bonding agents applied to those clean walls.

Failing stucco finishes are more common than most folks realize.
The key to avoiding this is the proper prep work before the new stucco finishes or even painting.

Howdy Folks, we show a color coat separating from the stucco wall.

Why does this happen? Any particles, weather dust, moss, or paint must be pressure or power-washed before any bonding agent is applied to the wall surface. I like to call this process micro-scoring.
You use a pressure washer with at least 3,000 psi, plus a turbo tip for washing and scoring the existing paint.
This will ensure an excellent bond.

We removed the loose stucco, re-applied the original or the same texture, and blended it into the existing so no one could tell where the plaster had separated when painted.
I used a bonding agent called "Weld-Creat' by Larson's to adhere to the new heavy finish stucco called La HaHaBra, which was heavy sand called 16/20 to bend or feather in the new stucco finish into the existing one that failed.
The concrete or stucco bonding agent Quikrete also works at all HD and Lows stores.
