    I was a lathe & plaster laborer in high school and college that served me well on stucco repairs in the past but this new stuff has me baffled. What is the proper repair technique for damaged dryvit raised trim on stucco and concrete homes. The dryvit is the raised styrofoam trim, mostly around door and window openings, covered with stucco with a contrasting color. In most cases the stucco and paint on concrete walls are fine but the styrofoam has been badly damaged.  Some areas I think could be patched and some areas have been penetrated so deep that replacement of the section of foam trim should be replaced.   Xactimate has a few entries for trim and quoins but what would the components used and other things to consider when repairing dryvit?

    Thanks for any help.
