@@brandonbell5357Nah. Tapers smoke weed. Been on many jobsites when tapers are working. Smells like a rock concert from back in the day. It never effected their results. They just seemed to get in the zone after a left hander.
I was thinking the same thing.... but I am learning.... going to try this. So much dust - hate that part....trying some wet sponge / vac - seems to help.
I've heard so many people make fun of the corner tool that I have always resisted using it. That is until the last couple of projects. Now I wish I had started using it sooner. I also started using one of those Joint Compound/Drywall Mud corner roller applicator thingy ma-bobs. Boy the combination works so nice together. Nice video. Thank you.
Thank you so much … much needed to refresh my memory I remember doing this with my pops to the inside of our home and now I get to do it in our same home in honor of him. Something I must do
I need some corners repaired and this video is just what I was looking for. I am going to try it!!! You made it look so easy, it really is a talent to be able to do such good work! Thanks for the video!!
Amazing video. A quick question please. It's recommended to use something like a durabond for the prefill before applying the joint compound when there are substantial gaps gaps, right?
Hi great clear and nicely presented video, may I ask what tape that is you are using on the corners I presume it's good for strength as I'm repair cracks in the corner of walls that go the complete lengths top to bottom. I normally use mesh scrim tape but I'm not sure what to use on the corners between to walls.
Super helpful!! Do you have a video for how to do outside corners, like those around windows? Today is the day I'm using your roller technique to do all my kitchen walls covered in a weird plaster texture! I think I'm ready. Thanks for the tutorials!
Awesome! Here’s that video: How to install and finish vinyl corner bead ua-cam.com/video/Kl6uPml3zG0/v-deo.html Good luck with your skim coating today!👍🏻😎 -Paul
Hi Paul, I am a subscriber and want to do skip trowel in my two garage which is tough to work around door rails. Anyway I am having trouble finding 20-30 coarse grade sand for under $200 for 50 lb bag when I only need a cup. Would AquaQuartz-50 Pool Filter 20-Grade Silica Sand 50 Pounds, WhiteAquaQuartz-50 Pool Filter 20- Grade Silica Sand work? $20 for 50 Lb. That’s 0.0270 inches average stone size. Thank you I hope you answer me.
Thanks for the video. Question. How would you fix inside corners that got too much buildup and the edges were not feathered. The edge is now primed and painted. Thanks
Well I agree for the most part but I'd also be looking to prepare the surface with bondcrete. It's a substrate bonding agent that works particularly well on painted surfaces. Paint and plaster fucking hate each other , especially if it's an older surface. I'd also suggest using a rigid sander or specialty scraping tool for the waves ( areas where the plaster has overlapped) . Prior to preparation. It'll need to be set with a blade at least a half inch wider than the existing garbage. I hope this is helpful. Please respond if not as I'm happy to attempt to help from this forum
The house I bought used mesh and the corner is cracking. Would it be easier for a first timer to use a vinyl bead on the inside corner instead of paper?
@@RidetheGeoffeningNot sure if you’re still active on here, but I have the exact same question. Can I throw paper over the cracked corner and feather it out? Would that be sufficient?
@ hey man . Yes , thankfully I’m still alive. You’ll need to be more explicit. Do you mean cracked internal angles ? I’m happy to back and forth to get you right mate.
Great video. Question I want to skim coat a wall and do a knock down for the texture. Do I use the sponge for the whole wall or is there a better way. Love your videos. Or direct me to one of your videos. Thanks Tom
Mud and taping is an art. I don’t care what anyone tells you if you can’t do it leave it to someone that can other words all the work you just did didn’t hang in that drywall won’t matter every imperfection will be seen.
12" knife to apply mud 😮 . So simple but have NEVER seen anyone do that in an explainer video. Oh the hours i could have saved. As for the corner tool...never got them to work for me.
Shit I thought I had to cover the tape entirely with spackle so that you couldn't see the yellow tape anymore I've been wasting so much time. But this video was really helpful to see how much mud to put on before applying the tape and then squeezing it out my corners look a lot better now.
For those of you saying he’s making it look easy, you guys always do the same two things wrong. Joint compound viscosity and trowel angularity. Your compound is always too thick and you don’t realize how to angle your trowel.
Good way to have tape failure in the future. Guess if your just giving the customer what I like to call a tailgate warranty. You know the kind that is over when the tailgate closes
I’m no expert but I’ve been a union commercial/industrial electrician for over ten years and I’ve never seen a finisher wet the tape. They do always add a lot of water to their mud though.
You can actually tape & mud it all in the same day for the most part. And, come back the next day to do a little bit of skim coating here & there maybe if you used the right tools instead of just a 6" & 12" knife. All you need is a banjo & an inside corner trowel & say abracadabra & like magic it'd be done! Of course if you're just doing a little weekend warrior work on your spare time & the extra steps & days to finish the job isn't so much a concern to you. Then by all means go ahead & play with the drywall knives, it's all good. But, if you plan on doing this as a side gig to make some extra dough, then pick up the right tools, ya dig? "Git-R-Done!"

No. Why hate

I learned how to drywall at my high school, and realised how time consuming it actually was. Your videos actually helped me a lot.
Great to hear!👍🏻😎

It's not easy so good luck mate. Internals are THE most difficult part of setting
It took you minutes......it's gonna take me all day! I know it!
This guy is a pro - clearly. I learned something today - thank you for posting. Corners give me a fit. I know...Practice makes perfect.
Great to hear!👍🏻😎
Amazing video. A quick question please. It's recommended to use something like a durabond for the prefill before applying the joint compound when there are substantial gaps gaps, right?
What kind of compound are you using?
USG all purpose joint compound.👍🏻
Hi great clear and nicely presented video, may I ask what tape that is you are using on the corners I presume it's good for strength as I'm repair cracks in the corner of walls that go the complete lengths top to bottom. I normally use mesh scrim tape but I'm not sure what to use on the corners between to walls.
How many coats do you do?
What if is next to a door frame on one side of the corner and you can’t get this even of an angle when mudding
It looks like everything except the corners already have a coat of Mudd on them. May I ask why you didn't just tape everything at the same time?
Lol
So is it ready for painting after sanding? Or do you have to put on more coats?
No, it needs at least one more coat.👍🏻

Lightly sand, then do a really tight skim coat on the edges. It should dry pretty quickly, probably in a couple of hours it will be sander ready!

Lol. Just noticed it's a year old this post so my advice will be hit or miss given blokes attempts at reno
So which method it’s easier for beginners?
The house I bought used mesh and the corner is cracking. Would it be easier for a first timer to use a vinyl bead on the inside corner instead of paper?
If you're still hoping for an answer to complete the task let me know on this thread and I'll explain it in detail mate
The simple answer is no. To the uninitiated that's a tough gig to fill.

Do you do another coat once the tape drys ?
Yes.✅👍🏻
What's the tape for? Do you keep it and paint over it?
No it's for her mouth so the neighbor don't here
@@brandonbell5357lol
@@brandonbell5357that's fucking useless , but hilarious.....so long as the Mrs don't hear it
@@RidetheGeoffening exactly
Why do you prefer paper tape over mesh tape?
Because the paper tape yields a more defined and crisp corner visually.✅👍🏻
Good drywallers literally don't get enough credit. Make this shit look so easy and it's not at all believe me lol
Yup, takes years of practice to get this good.
Neither do carpet guys roofers cement
Are you suppose to do two coats of this? Followed this . Sanded and then painted and the tape is still showing after I painted:(
This is taping the corner. You still have to do another coat over the tape and feather the edge.
Thanks for the video its very helpful for me since I am staring to learn this stuff
Glad to hear that!👍🏻😎
Really good and easy to follow video! 👍
Thanks bro
I think this should work on plastered walls too...

Straight-flex makes most of the skill required obsolete. If you are a beginner it's a no-brainer.
Any need to get the corner trowel with straight-flex?
@@GregoryGuay no
Straight-flex original or straight-flex tuff tape?
Mud and taping is an art. I don’t care what anyone tells you if you can’t do it leave it to someone that can other words all the work you just did didn’t hang in that drywall won’t matter every imperfection will be seen.
Toilet brush???
Nothing worse than mudding. Kudos to the pros, making it look easy, but not an easy task.

How else can you top it. Internal tools are exclusively for final coat imo. 3 inch splayed broad knife for taping
Perfektní ❤️❤️❤️

Yes. Here’s the title: Two Ways To Do Drywall Inside Corners For Beginners
Good video
Mud?
Joint compound.👍🏻

All the best.👍🏻😎
I cant tell what that silly tape is supposed to do
Go look at an inside corner at your home. That’s what the tape does!✅👍🏻
The tape strengthens joint and prevents cracks.
No taping tools??? Bazooka roller glazer make corners better, skim box 🤔🤔
Here’s the title: Two Ways To Do Drywall Inside Corners For Beginners… 👍🏻
Well, when I started taping we always used the taping tools and I was a beginner.
For those of you saying he’s making it look easy, you guys always do the same two things wrong.
Joint compound viscosity and trowel angularity.
Your compound is always too thick and you don’t realize how to angle your trowel.
Black magic
Easy peezy Japaneezy.
English only
wet the tape
Never!👍🏻
Some people like to wet corner tape first.
Good way to have tape failure in the future. Guess if your just giving the customer what I like to call a tailgate warranty. You know the kind that is over when the tailgate closes
People find this hard? If you're not this good after a few hours of practice I am worried for you.
👍👍👍
You take a little bit too long 🤣
Yeaaah stick to videos that works for you out here in the world don't work like that you would be at you house before lunch
You didn’t soak that tape in water
I never wet the tape.👍🏻
@@PaulPeck we see that
I’m no expert but I’ve been a union commercial/industrial electrician for over ten years and I’ve never seen a finisher wet the tape. They do always add a lot of water to their mud though.
What do you do if you do get a. Air bubble? I'm a complete amateur
You don’t need to
I thought you only did one side at a time doesn't it need to dry
That’s only on the coats after it’s been taped
