Hi guys, I have an idea for using my pink foam supply to fill a hole in my front yard that’s been bugging me for a while now, I want to construct a garden pagoda lantern similar to this:
I plan to make to core out of pink foam then cover it with a fine exterior stucco mix, but before I get too deep into this, a few questions for the guys who have built outdoors using foam.
-
Whats a good brand of stucco/finish covering for foam that will give it a for more durable surface than plain paint?
-
If I am not concern with fine detail (obviously), is it a good idea to cover the foam base with chicken wire before I stucco coat it?
-
Is any kind of finish coat recommended? I was planning to give it a good dose of Thomson’s water seal minimum.
Thanks
