I am working on a larger exterior wall with existing stucco, and I am adding another 1/2" over the existing stucco that's been there for over 20 years.
The wall is large and will take me multiple days since I can only do it after work before the sun sets. I am applying a blue bonding agent by Lanco:
Lanco Blue Fortifier and Bonding Agent CB-610 for plastering or plastering mix, homopolymer emulsion based adhesive and fortifier for interior/exterior use. As an adhesive it dries fast to promote a strong bond between old and new concrete, stucco, stone, wood, brick and tile. As a fortifier it provides resiliency.
The question I have relates to the use of this bonding agent. I applied the bonding agent over half the wall on day 1, thinking I was able to do half the wall, but I was slow. Plus I have to wait 2 hours after applying the bonding agent before putting on the stucco per instructions.
So I end up covering 1/3 of the wall only.
Now on day 2, I have some of the old bonding agent on the wall, the instructions said if I waited over 24 hours, I should recoat a new layer. In my case it's right at 24 hours. Should I recoat a new layer before waiting 2 hours and do another 1/3 of the wall?
Finally, these are rewettable, does it mean it will come apart when wet? since I am doing one section at a time, I am misting the section I did yesterday afternoon, and some of this mist sprayed over to the section not yet done, so that wall is partially wet, now on day 2, can I put new bonding agent onto a section of wall that's been partially wet from overspraying? Or I should stop misting the wall while I am working on it, but then this will cause the fresh stucco to shrink too much too soon right?
