In the medieval age, people would build their houses with a fine coating of Stucco on the walls. This helped them to keep the inside of the house warm during the winters and cold during the summers. Many old Mosques and Churches still have the coating of the stucco over them. In the modern times, the practice of using stucco is again coming into practice. One of the main reasons is that stucco insulation is helping families cut on electricity bill. Since stucco helps in maintaining a comfortable temperature within a house, the need to run heater appliances gets reduced automatically. Apart from this, if stucco can also be framed in different design patterns, that looks nice. Stucco initially was made up of a mixture of water, cement, and sand. But nowadays cement is also being used as it helps in binding the material together. The natural color of stucco is dark grey. However, other colors and ingredients can be added for different colors.

In one of the reports it was found that even small open spaces lead to so much leakage of air that may raise the electricity bill by 60%. Using Acrylic Stucco Installation one can effectively plug these gaps and vents, thus preventing the warm air inside the rooms from escaping outside during the winters. One can face some problems while using the acryclic stucco. It often clings to the surfaces that disturb the setting. Especially if it is a wooden surface, the stucco may tend to cling more. To solve this problem one may use iron or steel bases on which the stucco may be applied and kept for drying. After the stucco has tried, the dried out plates of stucco can then be removed and applied to the walls with the help of a suitable binder. Cement is the most common binder that is used to bind the dried out plates to the walls.
