THREE, TWO, OR ONE-COAT STUCCO— WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?
Frequently the question is asked about stucco applications and what the difference is between one-coat, two-coat or three-coat stucco systems. A good place to start is to define what is meant by the word “coat” as it relates to stucco. A coat is defined as “a layer or thickness of stucco applied in a single operation.”
The purpose of this blog is to define the differences and not to choose one over the other as they all have their place. The success of either choice is based on the use of quality material and application procedures installed by trained professionals.
