Other uses for Kemset Ekoplast-50 plaster finishes. • Stucco walls with lime...
These straw bales and similar structures have been around since the beginning of time.
They keep humans safe from freezing rains and cold weather, as well as predators with large teeth and appetites.
The materials change or adapt from cob, which is clay, sand, and straw, to dirt, and yes, Dung, to lime stucco and many other outer skins for waterproofing.
Stray bale homes can't burn as once covered, there is "no oxygen" for a fire to start or remain started; one just needs to watch the old movie Backdraft, directed by Ron Howard in 1991, with Kurt Russel and Robert DeNiro, to understand this concept.
And no, rodents, such as mice or rats, can't live in it as the straw can't be used can't be used as food.
Actually, mice can live in it, as they can live in anything with holes, such as straw, caves, wood, or even steel structures.
But these critters would still need to come out of hiding to eat edible food, drooped by us untidy humans. I'm sure they love pizza crumbs.
FYI, Kemset Ekoplast 50 is a Lye free plaster;

Here in the UK solid plastering has been the norm for hundreds of years starting with mixes of mud, lime, cement then over to gypsum plasters. Like everywhere the trade has become deskilked and watered down for various reasons and now dot and dab drywall has been the norm here for 20+ years although we still tend to finish with a skim of gypsum plaster. So basically here plasterers spend most of their time skimming and only using solid backing plaster or mortars on repair or renovation jobs.

Not only that. Plaster can accomplish beautiful things. Sheetrock cannot! Blue or green board makes a suitable substrate, for plaster. But people puckey the joints and call it done. Quite distasteful. Type X is the best, since cedar and horsehair are out these days. I thank God every day for my dad who taught me what his father taught him,what his father taught him.

Kirk, I watch many of your videos and make my guys do it too - before we do any plastering. But, I gotta say that what you call "plastic" is mostly portland cement with some amount of lime in it - maybe 15%. Same stuff commonly used for stucco. Does not "breathe". The Ekoplast seems very cool and definitely looks like it "breathes".

Evening, Cob is a structural mixture of clay, sand, and straw, used to build walls. However it's nowhere as strong or long lasting as lime plastering. We have to use what's available, folks even use dirt or mud, if that's all that available. However rain will turn it back into mud.

New to the channel. I enjoyed the video. I'm confused by some of your lingo Kirk. You keep saying, "6, 7, 8" thick". I must be confused. You would need a dump truck of that white stuff to make a wall that thick. Can you clear this up?
@StuccoPlastering
@StuccoPlastering 6 месяцев назад
Howdy Willy, we used seven 40-pound bags to complete this wall far from a truckload. A technique not shone is that I followed the humpty and bumbby pattern, but it appears to be flat. It's not.
@lukula2934
@lukula2934 6 месяцев назад
weewillywanka5904 asked a simple question. I'll try to get a better answer. Clearly, when you say that this wall is 6"-7"-8" thick, it is not that thickness to the bales. Even where and when you showed us that you were inserting your finger"all the way in", your were inserting less than an inch. Seven 40# bags would not come close to such thicknesses.At least not in more than a few filled in spots or holes. I'm guessing those thicknesses are referring to the variance of the wall rather than the actual depth of the material being applied. The 3/4"to1" thick window casings being still proud of the finished surface makes this even more obvious. I too am somewhat confused as to why you would not clarify this. In the trades we have a saying, "teaching enough to make someone dangerous"... With all due respect, it seems like this is the case.
@StuccoPlastering
@StuccoPlastering 6 месяцев назад
@@lukula2934 we did use 7 bags, unless you have used this material and are a professional, you can’t be expected to understand how much and how thick it can be applied. Normal stucco depth for covering straw-bales is about 3 inches thick. Even if the bales are stacked perfectly, these were not stacked for perfection intentionally. Thus three to 9 inches gives the wavy look they were seeking. The wall waviness is in all directions. You don’t have to understand this, I do.

Can you do the same plastering on to straw bales with normal cement as well.

Sure you can, buy the bags that say “plastic” on them. There are red bags that are called common, the orange bags say plastic, they have more lime and plasticizers in them.

Can you apply lime veneer on dens glass installed inside of a tiny home with out sealing it? Or do you recommend sealing it first?
@StuccoPlastering
@StuccoPlastering 4 месяца назад
I have only heard of Densglass being attached to exteriors, thus do not know how to finish it inside, I would guess if we lath and plaster it if it’s attached to the outside. Sheetrock can be applied over it and finished. However this is just a guess? Good luck, remember luck is the residue of research. Keep googling the question until you find the correct answer.

Good question but, No, far from it. Picture this lime plaster as liquid limestone, when solid it resorts back to limestone. All joint compounds are gypsum based and should only be used inside.
