Dry is not the word your looking for here! Cure is appropriate.. Stucco as with all Portland Cement based products depends on water in the mix reacting with the cement. As this reaction takes place the water is absorbed into the cement causing an "Exothermic" event [creating heat] and causing the sand and aggregate to bind together, basically forming artificial rock called concrete. Stucco is a generic name and denotes a fine sand mix texture but it has the same principal.
Once cured, a majority of the moisture has been consumed by hydration process and some is lost due to evaporation. Most engineers call for a cure period of 7-15 days to allow for a complete cure. Premature hydration or evaporation will deter a good cure and cause shrinkage cracking. Even after the cure period [to dry out?] stucco will absorb moisture from high humidity or rain. This makes it WET again !!
Allowing moisture transfer in and out of stucco is an invitation to a host of problems! If you paint stucco but still have not sealed it, moisture will bring chemistry out to the surface where it will blister and delaminate coatings. Commonly called "Alkali Burn". Waterproofing a stucco ASAP to control the cure, eliminate cracking and be able to paint in 48 hours, is what I suggest.
Would depend on the ambient temperature and the relative humidity
Welll it depends where you are and the air around you.
It depends mostly on the compound used. They come with drying times from 30 minutes to 24+ hours, with the weather being a factor.
so long as no further moisture enters the wall the one month for every one inch wall thickness
Less than one day usually.
drywall putty!! fill in the holes with drywall putty, let it dry, then sand it and paint over it... it will look as good as new!!
NO. -Concrete may be a 'dry' wall, however it is NOT Drywall.
The best way to drywall a curved or radius corner is to wet the drywall. If possible lay the drywall over a form that matches the radius to be covered. use a garden sprayer or watering can an wet the drywall. It will bend to match the form before your eyes. Let it dry out. It will stay in that shape and will easily be applied to the curve. Tighter radii may require using a thinner drywall like 1/4". Use the same method, but apply two layers if the rest of the job is 1/2" drywall
There are a few ways that you can repair a large drywall section. One way is to use a patching compound and apply it over the area that needs to be repaired. Another way is to use a drywall adhesive to attach a piece of drywall over the area that needs to be repaired. Cut a piece of drywall to fit the hole. Attach the drywall to the studs with drywall screws. Cover the seams with drywall tape. Cover the entire patch with joint compound. Let the joint compound dry. Sand the joint compound. Paint the patch. For getting the professional drywall patch repair service contact us.
Drywall as we know it has been around since about 1890.
Drywall was invented around 1900 in New York.
Drywall dust is dangerous to any animal
I don't believe there is an actually age limit on installing dry wall. Dry wall is a complicated task and as long as you are taught properly to install, you should be allowed to install it. To work for a dry walling company, the age may vary from company to company.
No. Let it dry over a long period of time in your humidor. If it starts to mold, toss it. Do not let it ruin other good smokes.
It can be either: drywall or dry wall. It can also be hyphenated: dry-wall.
About 20 mins is fine.
Drywall mud is water based. Rub the area with a wet sponge or rag and let the water work on the drywall mud. As the mud gets wetter it will come off. Be sure the water will not damage the underlying window frame before you start.wash it with warm water with a green and yellow scrubbing sponge
