Stucco Boy offers sand blasting or poly prep services as necessary steps on re-stuccoing your home. The current condition of your stucco walls are the determining factor of what process is best for you. Both processes come with a lifetime warranty and create a structurally sound substrate for the top coat to adhere to. Both processes are very similar in price range and time requirements. Let one of Stucco Boy’s knowledgeable sales representatives determine the best method with you.
Sandblasting removes paint and the top layer of stucco, referred to as the “color coat,” exposing the brown coat. Poly prep is applied over the color coat after water blasting and scraping has occurred. Poly prep leaves a straighter and consistent finish, allowing for a more uniform texture.

Abrasive cleaning is “blasting” with a high pressure air hose and media such as sand or other granules to remove paint and dirt from a variety of surfaces to prepare it for another opaque coating. Check with your city before you begin your project and ask about what type of sandblasting is allowed in your neighborhood. Suggested materials such agricultural media, like walnut shells or corncobs work great on wood, soda can be used to remove graffiti and copper slag or sand commonly used on masonry will usually be a requirement by the city you live in.
