Best Synthetic Stucco for ICF

jackofalltrades777 | Posted in General Questions on
Trying to get some input on the best synthetic stucco for ICF walls?
 
I found the company U-Stucco which seems like an interesting good production. They even claim an R-Value rating when applied at 1″ thick.
 

StuccoMax out of Nevada looks like a good product also.

    I priced out the StuccoMax and it came out to close to $12k for the material. The U-Stucco came out to around $6k for the material. Quite the difference. I will most likely go with the U-Stucco based on cost and ease of use. The U-Stucco contains fibers for reinforcement but I will also use a 10 ounce fiberglass mesh to help with strength and crack prevention.
