Best Answer

"Dash" refers to a rough stucco finish created by throwing or blowing ("dashing") stucco or aggregate on the third (last) coat of concrete plaster to provide an ornamental appearance. In the first part of the 20th century, stucco was dashed with a special brush, but more recently it's shot from a machine, similar in principle to gunite or shotcrete. The roughness of the appearance ranges from "light dash" to "heavy dash" or "tunnel dash". The high spots may be lightly troweled to provide a "knockdown dash" finish.

Who sells a stucco called rock dash or pebble dash or slap dash?

"Pebble dash" isn't a type of stucco material, it's a technique for applying the stucco. Immediately after regular stucco is applied to the wall, pebbles or small rocks are thrown against the wall surface so that they stick to the wet stucco finish. Successfully applying the finish requires some skill and practice. Pebble dash stucco was particularly popular in mission/bungalow buildings of the early 20th century.
