In this video I go over how to tape a drywall seam. I’m using paper tape, USG All-Purpose mud thinned down with water, a metal pan and 8” drywall knife.
Love how you explain how your doing it. I watch all your videos. I’m redoing my garage and would love to show you the after pictures great work your doing thank you so much
This is my kinda video, short and to the damn point. I don't know why people need to make a 7 minute video to explain what you just did in about a minute 👏
I appreciate your clips. I shave intentions of renovating an old house of the family’s. Your clips may be instrumental. Some outside studs are going to need to be replaced, and I have no intentions of doing any of them from a ladder or scaffolding.
@@christophvonpapenburg well I'm talking about her and other women who work hard........ cuz there R women who don't even like to cook or do nothing or don't know how to and even tho that mite be her job she does it wit pride
Do you use both sides of your knife? Ive been told to only use the concave side on the wall but ive heard other opinions. Can you clear this up and tell me when to use which side of the knife
All depends on what I’m doing. If I’m filling something that deep, like first coat on metal corner bead I’ll use concave side. If I’m doing a smooth wall and working on finish coat I’ll try and use the straightest knife I can find or buy a new one to make sure everything is super flat. And then I use the convex side the majority of the time, my taping knife I use the convex side, and for all my coating I use the convex side. So I would say I use the convex side 90% of the time
@@bryansmith9163: I’m not sure how many drywall knives you’ve owned but I’ve had a few dozen, mostly high quality stainless and have used another bunch belonging to employees from cheapie blue steel to top range Marshaltown and the only one I ever had with a curve was a really nice 12” that my helper, Big John, stepped on and bent the ferrule. It was completely useless after that. Fortunately he was not useless so I kept him and threw out the knife, lol. I did know a painter who was an awful taper and he used to intentionally bend his knives and then spend half the day sanding out the results. Great painter though.
@curt carmack: It depends on experience. As a longtime general contractor I’ve noticed that amateurs often try to tape with a 3” plastic putty knife and of course invariably make a terrible mess. I tape when I have to and usually start with a 4” and an 8”. Most full time professionals seem to prefer to start with a 6 and a 10. In any case you’re more likely to develop carpal tunnel syndrome typing comments on UA-cam, lol.
@@rayray8687 yeah I've seen the amateurs try to use a 3-inch on mudding in flats, usually a homeowner trying to "do it yourself". I've also seen them use a 10-in knife to mud in, and run angles. I personally have always used a 6-in knife to mud the flats in and 8-in to wipe them down. I like a six because it really fills in the bevel. I finished drywall for 45 years and have carpal tunnel in my right arm, arthritis in my right hand arthritis in my right knee and my back. Finishing is a trade that inevitably causes carpal tunnel and arthritis, that's why it's important to learn good habits when you're young and stick with them.
She made a 1:18 minute video that was more helpful than all the 15 min videos. Thank you
Yes, hate it when too much talk
You have taught me how to work smart and not hard. Thank you.
Love how you explain how your doing it. I watch all your videos. I’m redoing my garage and would love to show you the after pictures great work your doing thank you so much

Hi what mud do you recommend for taping?
Very nice young lady. :)
Wow! You're awesome! Tell your camera person to flip the camera horizontally. You're only catching a 1/3 of a full screen
I always get bubbles and it’s driving me crazy. I do exactly what you demonstrate, and I get air bubbles. Please what do I do.
I worked with a taper girl for years, she wanted to learn, she ended up doing all the angles on almost every house.
👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
Very good job
Love your videos.Why don't you use a banjo it's way faster.

@@DrywallShorty thanks! I like your channel. Keep it up
@@bryansmith2824: If you buy a good quality knife and some dumb klutz doesn’t step on it, it won’t have a convex and concave side, lol.
@@rayray8687 all knives are made with a slight curve

Mudding flats in with that 10-in knife is going to give you arthritis and carpal tunnel way before your time!
