If the foundation is a concrete poured foundation, you can acid wash the foundation and apply the scratch coat directly to the foundation. If it is a block foundation, Ice and water is a good choice. I did a rock job with a block foundation this past summer, totaling 7,000sqft, and I put up ice and water. The next part to me two 13 hour days to do. I started hanging the lath by tapping the foundation with a Hilti Hammer Drill and securing the lath with nail Rivets with a half inch head from Fastenel. All in All, saved me money in the long run, if I were working free. If your using the .22 rounds, you better stock up, Obama is takin em away!!!!:furious:
Be sure you hang the lath the correct way, I dont know how to explain it, but there is a way. But you prolly know that.
What brand and style of rock are you using?
Good Luck
