This is an odd pattern of staining on the original felt paper that was under the stucco lathe. This part of the wall was in the where the porch meets the side wall of the house. It was fairly protected and the sheathing underneath it was in great shape. I don't know what that kind of stain pattern means, but I assume it was somehow caused by water getting through the stucco and trapped on the paper. We haven't seen it anywhere else because the other felt paper was too far gone - it shredded as the stucco came off.

"Wrinkled paper, result of aborbing some moisture from wet stucco application. Normal. Spots are whrere stucco was tight against paper." --bhammerstrom, 01/10/07
