A banding bead which is attachable to a base structure for providing a guide and form for retaining plaster or other plastic materials thereagainst at two different heights. The banding bead includes a base portion and a generally planar elongated support segment extending generally perpendicularly away said base portion. The banding bead is extruded from a selected material or formed from a strip of sheet material. The support segment has a first planar side, a second planar side, and a top screed portion distal the base portion. A screed lip is disposed on the second planar side between the top screed portion and the base portion. The base portion includes primary and secondary feet extending from the support segment for attachment to the underlying base structure and to provide stability. The screed lip provides a screed surface for maintaining a desired wall thickness relative to a main wall plane and the top screed portion provides a screed surface for the surface of the banding feature a distance above the main wall plane.
