SPEC MIX'S Specialized Sand Gradation Equals Superior Stucco

The quality, workability and durability standards for SPEC MIX Fiber Base Coat stucco starts with the special sand specification we demand. Only SPEC MIX utilizes an optimized sand gradation that combines calculated percentages of masonry sand and concrete sand to achieve an optimal gradation as show in the graphs and table to the right. To ensure the FBC stucco made from every production facility is top-quality, the aggregates from each SPEC MIX plant are analyzed and documented based on particle shape, composition, and gradation. Then the specific properties of the cementitious materials, special additives and fibers are analyzed to determine the proportions of each needed for the final mix design. This gives SPEC MIX the particular advantage of providing superior quality SPEC MIX FBC with minimal shipping costs compared to single or regional plant locations. As a result, the finished product can be troweled on, spray applied, and finished by applicators with extreme efficiency.
