Also at this stage if you're a box guy taker the time to run the 5" knife along all the box edges wall and ceiling same time as 2nd coat on 3 ways.

Also why not run the boxes over the waist level joints? Do you usually handcoat all the stairwells? I'm a hawk and trowel guy but I can still run a pan and knife and love watching other people do it.

Then just use half bucket. I mean I stopped using one roll per bucket. Just get more bucket

Building houses is dangerous work. That is the right way and the only way to get to that area.

You think a banjo is too heavy?

Hey friend thanks for checking out the video, great question. For me, it would have to be the super taper. It made for volume, its durable and it light. I know it’s messy and it can seem unreliable, but it’s the best for anything above one roll of tape. One roll of tape and one mud on a banjo is heavy. Banjo is for the DIY guy, or repair guy.. drop the banjo and save your shoulder 👍🏾

And yes I do notice that taping is always a bit different in other parts of the world. 🤔 I wonder if I’d be a good taper in France.😂

Thanks for checking out the video, I appreciate your time. 👍🏾

Hey thanks for watching, thanks for the comment. I do wash my glove after handling the tape. I always carry about half a bucket of water when I tape. The mud from the tape tends to make my tools messy and slippery. Also taking off the gloves is a chore.

I will try supertaper next week. I'let you know how it goes. But i'm sure i won't be tired as usual with the banjo.

I've been washing my hands with a bucket and stponge between using tools and applying tape and now I'm realising I may have been doing this all wrong... (Also liberally moisturizing in the evening after)

That’s another way to do it. That’s how I started back in the days. But I’m a taper and there is always an easier way, so I remove the extendable leg from the ladder and place the paper from an old role of tape on the top open ends of the extension so I can protect the wall. In this case when I’m done there is no extra work.

@@augustinhogreen3117 yeah, those stairways suck because they turn at the bottom. If I could fit a drywall bench in there with extension legs on some stairs, I'd do that to on the closer wall. We use to hang and tape so it wasn't a big deal, sometimes we'd go ahead and finish those hard to reach areas while hanging the house so just the easy stuff was left on taping day. Then again, I use to do retarded stuff like stilts on a 12" plank over an open stair way.... fall and your legs are no more if you are lucky to live. To be young and stupid again, I guess!

Much appreciated 👍🏾

Yeah, those joints are tapered for a reason... Why fill them in? I'm so confused...

The prefill gives a sheer bond to the two sheets. Even if it’s a small gap like 1/16, it’s worth doing.

Do you also pre-fill where the walls meet and where the ceiling meets the walls?

@@Ryan-xw4qx The point of prefil is to not have a void behind the tape. If the gap is easily filled while regular taping, there's no reason to prefill. If you have a 1/4" or more gap between the joints or corners between the wall and ceiling then yes, you should prefill those gaps flush with the drywall before taping. Make sure no mud sits on top of the drywall or else you'll get a high spot. You are basically using hot mud to fill in missing drywall.

I need to politely disagree with this. We are not prefilling the entire bevel, only the small seam where the 2 factory joints meet. The entire bevel is like 2.5" or something into the drywall. To each their own, but here in Southern Ontario where temps can go from -35 to +35 wood will shift and on residential especially prefilling everything is necessary to avoid warranty work 3 seasons after install.

Great comment, I don’t wear a lot of the mud. Makes people think I’m working hard. 😭😭. The bags can be use if you clean them properly. Mainly for the taping process. Check that video out. 👍🏾❤️

When the mud is all over my cloth, people assume I’m working hard. But I’m hardly working. I’m a taper, I refuse to work hard. ❤️

The last bucket is gonna be a 12” box skim coat. Skim coats are always thin. Gotta save that mud. ;)

@@augustinhogreen3117 when l ran jobs, the tapers that showed up to work and didn’t want to work hard got fired the same day they showed up

Thanks! 😃

This system may suck, but it’s light convenient and durable. Banjos are heavy with a full roll of tape. Bazoka’s just look expensive and heavy.

Nail heads are just terminology, like 45’s, inside corner and flats. Nails aren’t used very often these days. Just some old school drywallers. 😎

Hey Freind thanks for checking out the videos, sounds like you’re a fan of my channel. Like share and subscribe. I have more videos coming up soon so you can post comments on those also. But just to let you know, watching videos on RUclips don’t make anyone an expert, you need practical experience.

No problem

The sander I use has the vacuum integrated. I recommend that type.

I agree that the trowel has advantages, it’s just that not everyone uses the knife. And I also think that the knifes has its advantages. Knifes and skimming blades have a place in taping I think. 👍🏾😁❤️.

I don’t use hot mud, I don’t know what it is. I use CGC all purpose mud (red label) that comes in the box. For skim coat I dump the box in a bucket and about 3 cups of water and mix to a creamy finish. Most time I cover the bucket to keep the mud from drying out and preserve that creamy texture.

The amount of water used can differ depending on how comfortable you are with soft mud. But softer mud is better for skim coat.

The short answer is yes. Pre-fill properly and let it start to dry(set) Wet tape properly and let it start to dry(set) Then you can go ahead and cover the same day. There will be a little shrinkage, but that can be sanded out once the material is completely dry. The key is to do the prefill and the wet tape properly.

Thank you kindly!

The 325 is good for angle that are tight and clean. And the 450 is better for larger gaps and longer angles .

These guy don’t make it easy for me . 😎 I just have to play it cool.

Thank you first we do a good job. Then ask the boss for a raise. 😂😂🤩

Thanks 👍

thanks 👍🏾❤️😂

Any time!

Can Am is the brand ( columbia is also a good brand ) 3" is the size and i recommended you get the type with the wheels 👍🏾

if its a surface repair such as a dinged wall or a deep scratch, there is no need. you will have to sand the final job before paint. Something like a sanding block should do (150-189 grit)

thanks 👍🏾

Thank you too😊

❤️ 👍🏾 thanks for watching !
