A lath for use in mounting plaster and the like to a substrate, the lath comprising a substantially planar, thermo-plastic grid including a plurality of first elongate, relatively flat strands extending laterally in a first direction and a plurality of second elongate strands extending laterally and transversely of the first elongate strands, the grid having a generally smooth side, and wherein the first elongate strands and the second elongate strands define a plurality of openings extending transversely through the grid, the second elongate strands comprising spacer portions positioned opposite the smooth side of the grid for spacing the grid a selected distance away from the substrate for allowing plaster to be introduced between the lath and the substrate without requiring the use of furring strips.
