Parging is just trowled smooth, stucco has some texture to it. It is
all basically sand and portland cement with some admixes to make it
stick better and go on easier.


I always use a mortar to do my parge coats. It is stickier & it seems
to go on smoother for me. [not a mason- and only do this every 5 years
or so it seems]
