I have to replace about 100 sq ft of stucco that came loose. The climate is Chicago area, House is old and base is lath over some kind of wood and appears sturdy and not weathered. I think the old stucco came off because it was painted and couldn't breath.

The morter is available at Home Depot. Do you know of a good written guide to the subject? Does any supplier of morter offer such a guide?
