CRACK ISOLATION SYSTEM

CRACK ISOLATION SYSTEMOmega Products' Crack Isolation System has been manufactured to reduce stucco cracking in new and existing stucco systems by embedding fiberglass mesh into the base coat prior to applying the color coat. This highly effective system can either embed the mesh directly into the brown coat or into an acrylic modified base coat such as FoamTek. Omega's FoamTek is a dry blend, polymer-modified, portland cement-based material which has been specifically formulated for coating and attaching architectural foam shapes, as well as being used as an effective leveling coat for approved substrates. FoamTek is available in 60 (fine), 30 (medium), 20 (med-coarse) and 16 (coarse). When properly applied, the 14oz high strength fiberglass mesh acts as a form of 'rebar' for the finish coat, practically eliminating stucco cracking. 

With stucco cracking continuing to be one of the most common concerns from residential & commercial property owners; Omega's Crack Isolation System has proved to be an invaluable upgrade to any stucco application, regardless of finish. It not only reduces client call-back rates, but is also a wise choice for refreshing or repairing an existing sub-par stucco exterior; - an area quite prone to stucco cracking.

"Due to the high proportion of steel trowel and restucco applications made by LA Stucco Company, it is imperative that we have a competent crack reduction program in place; to protect both our customers AND our reputation. We have researched and employ every possible alternative measure in our efforts to reduce stucco cracking, but no other system comes even close to Omega's Crack Isolation System". Daniel Fitzgerald, President of LA Stucco Company.

The use of Omega's Crack Isolation System can increase the overall system warranty period. Omega Factory Warranties of up to 15 years are available when used with additional Omega products.
