    If you’re going to bore into your foundation you need to be prepared to do it right. Now, do you have extruded poly-vinyl foam insulation? Good. Assemble the aluminum J-channel using self-furring screws. After applying brushable coating, use corrosion-resistant metal stucco lathe. If you can’t find metal stucco lathe, use carbon fiber stucco lathe! Now barge the lathe.
