From one mud guy to another: Ben, you are a master of your craft! I’ve picked up several new tricks from watching you.
This channel is rapidly becoming _the_ go-to YT channel for all things drywall! At least from the homeowners perspective, it is. Great material! Keep up the great work!
You are exactly right!
This guy deserves his own heritage moment.
Ben, I cannot begin to thank you enough. I was searching for something to help straighten the none standard angle corners of my garage knee walls. The garage is 32' x 24' so I have four 45° seams 32' long and not all of the ceiling trusses are even. I bought the No-Coat and my lines look amazing. I also began watching your other videos as I am just an old guy that does things myself. You have helped me amaze myself!
Super useful tips and how-to on all sorts of drywall install to finishing. This one was especially useful to me as a DIY'er where I had to fix a poorly done angled ceiling which was over 30 feet on our grand room. Your technique saved me a lot of anxiety before I took on this repair. Now I am more confident of getting this done by myself without a botched-up job and then having to call a pro to fix my terrible mistakes which would have cost me more time and money than not to have attempted tried at all. You do a very thorough job of explaining everything that is critical to get it right except the experience you have that no one can get without doing it many times. Thanks and greetings from US
You make this look so easy!! I'm new to tape/mud drywall you are my go to for everything! Thank you for being here!
This guy has the steady hand and dexterity of a brain surgeon. It's insane how easy he makes this look.
Nice job on that! Very clear and correct. I wish I had watched this years ago when my boss threw me a box of No Coat and said, "put that in the off angles"...The sanding was epic
Very useful! I had so called professionals do mine. They came back twice and never got it right. keeps popping out along the edges. Thanks to you excellent video I can do it myself. I've pushed enough mud over the years and thanks to your video I can do it right and not have to sand off half the mud. Excellent video!
Just doing this on my 45 degree walls. Went out and bought the 325 today! Rona didn't have it; Home Hardware did! Did first piece and looks great!!!! Thanks VanCarp!
I've framed, drywalled and painted a lot before but thanks to your videos and a bit of logic to fill in the gaps i was able to tape for the first time a part of my basement with a lot of awkward angles. Felt the job was too small to ask a tapper from work, so thanks your videos were helpful.
We also use NoCoat. Another trick is to use a laser to create the straight line along the corner, then make sure the blue line stays on the laser line.
Good idea!
It's not an idea it is how a professional installs no coat. I also recommend that you don't over bend your no coat! This makes it want to pull off the wall. If anything under crease it so that you will have an inward pressure.
This is awesome I have two outside corners that are not standard and searched your channel and boom what do you know you have it. As mentioned before I'm not a drywaller but if these corners turn out as good as what I learned from you on joints and regular corners hoping its great. Who knew there were so many products, tips and tricks not to mention an excellent teacher such as yourself. Thanks much Ben for taking the time to make these videos and old dog is learning new tricks.
Love that trick of using the snips to push the mud out! Totally doing that at work tomorrow!
I have a tip for you VC when you get a new box of no coat open it and remove the roll , then screw the box on the floor and replace the roll and on the side of the box is a slot you can pass the end of the no coat through and above is another slot to hook your tape measure in measure the wall and then hook your tape to the box a run it out to your length and cut it at the box no waste !!
Also with a fresh box on the back there are lines that mark a foot each. Just in case that's helps to. Or just cut to the line and bam
Aww man, screwing the box to the floor was the missing link for me. Thanks for the tip, even if it's 2 years later
Your videos seem to come just in the nick of time. You've helped me immensely. Thanks for filming!
Hope you read this. Thanks a whole lot for your videos!!! Did all my bathroom and stuff looks good! Very appreciative of you sharing all this info!!! 👍🏻
I love your stuff, thanks so much for sharing! We're completely renovating our house and your videos were a big part in getting the finish where we wanted it do be (to the extent that we managed ourselves, at least).
Ok. Got my answer to taping wall and ceiling corners with 45 degree angle. Need a bigger, expensive, and more rigid tape?
Thanks for the tips! I've got to learn apply mud using a sideways pull of the blade. Love watching your skills.
The best drywall you-tuber!!! Thanks man!
This stuff is amazing. I taped angles identical as yours and then the house was jacked up 1.75 inches on one end to level the floors. Zero cracks where Ultraflex was used (wall/vaulted ceiling intersections) whereas the regular paper/fiba fuse butt joints all popped and cracked badly and had to be redone.
Your videos are the best!
Thanks for your video demonstration. You're an awsome teacher.
Great stuff! Wish i would have found this before I finished my whole house. What a pain with tape and trying to get a straight line. Thanks!
great stuff man! thanks for sharing the knowledge! Happy new Year!
Mudding is definitely an art form that I haven’t been able to master . Then again I’m just a DYI so it’s not an everyday job.
Looks easy . Looks great when a pro does it.
I was completely unaware of their break-in period. Thanks for the info!
I did exactly what you said to do and everything caught on fire - thanks a lot...
I have to say you do a great job ! And I was looking at the skylights that are going to be a fun job... And a great video for someone who is new to it and wants to learn the scales of the trade Nice Work
Best explanation on doing this thanks.
Great Job. I was searching for this video months ago but didn't know what it was called. (the corner) I did mine with paper and a friend at work finally told me about the stuff you used. (only mine was metal).
Awesome! Thank you. Using your technique tomorrow.
Dude your vids are great! Thank you so much for the help. I’ve done lots of mudding before but wow I knew nothing. Lol
I thoroughly enjoy your videos
Very well explained, thanks
Now i know why im struggling. . I was taught to coat all the way to the line then would spend lots of time messing around cleaning out the line😥😂 Thxs for the vid .
Same here :(
At least I know for next time
Thank you for all of your very helpful videos with tips and tricks...and for being eye candy. Can you do texturing? Would love to see a knockdown texture video from you. My efforts have been less than successful, but thanks to you I can fill, tape, and float a joint!
Very relaxing seeing a master work and it comes out perfect. Your weekend DIY hacker, like me, leaves it looking like it was done by a little fellow that the organ grinder accidentally let off the chain.
James Ziemba 😂😂😂. Well said James, that’s exactly how I feel sometimes!
Super guide, thanks for taking the time to share
Good footage and great topic. Thanks
Nice video. Thanks for making one of the most challenging corner jobs much easier for me.....
I've corrected my mistakes, implemented your methods, and have noticed a huge improvement....Thanks again......
That is really clean
Thanks, this video was very helpful
I like the look of those corners. I may try a box.
Thank you just what i needed!!
You're a really skilled drywall finisher. I'm glad I found your channel!
I’ve never used these corner beads, thanks for the vid guys I’m going to give it a go 👍
They are a bit expensive
pbee73 I’ve not actually been able to find a supplier yet, I’ll have another look in the New Year, builders holidays at the moment and everyone’s on holiday here in the UK until next Wednesday 😬👍
Love you videos bro, wish I could be your helper for a few years and master some of your skills
Great video content! Thanks!
Trick to it is to fold it back the other way after you crease it. That way it doesn't try to pull back away from they wall as it will try to do sometimes. Then when you come back the next day you'll have a corner flapping at you that's pulled away from the mud . Not always but it will happen mostly on those wide angles .
Back in the day, I used to tack on a straight edge, finish one side, when dry tack the straight edge on the other side and finish. Just a couple of small holes to fill afterwards.
Really good video.
Fantastic, I should show you my work with paper tape from 10 years ago, lots of waves, bubbles, nasty line. the sanding was a nightmare. after watching the blue line ready for the challenge.
DUDE! next level
I have a vaulted/tray type ceiling with a bunch of non 90 degree angles and I would like to use this product and your techniques to fix the ceiling since a majority of the joints are crack and coming un-done. What are the best techniques to remove the existing tape and compound from all the seams and corners. Searched your library and couldn't find any videos explaining best way to strip and prepare existing joints. Hoping this can be done without replacing drywall. BTW, videos are awesome and some of the best 'how to' videos on You-tube. Thank you!
You’re a life saver man
Very useful in the future, thank you. Unfortunately I already put mesh tape up, and now have to figure out how to get the mud into the corner nicely and finish it. (Watch your head.)
Oy where was this video last June!!! 🤦♂️
Very good video
we have the same thing at hd in PA but much smaller, mostly plastic with paper imbedded on it.. when you run your fingers down it to curl it into 90, it slits your finger pads open like a razor blade.. so much fun.
Brilliant videos, really helpful, even I'm not quite as quick as you by a very long shot lol.
Great video.
I have used the no coat at the one house and it works great. Also love the straight flex too ! Do please buy some good knee pads. I wish I had used them a lot more in the drywall and plastering business.
Would love a video on taping/mudding window enclosures.
He did one with tear-away bead.
ruclips.net/video/j0_0YB9DRm4/видео.html
Great video! I just had to rip out one of these angle beads in my finished attic space. There was cracking that occurred and separating of the paper part of the bead from the wall. When I tore out the bead, I noticed that the sheetrock joint had a space of around 1/4 inch or so. There was no back filling of mud to seal up the joint beforehand. Should I use some hot mud to close up the joint between the two sheets of sheetrock and then put a new bead in? Should I put tape down after the mud and then the angle bead over that?
Thank you so much!
Jason
Thank you for another excellent video! I felt pretty good about following your workflow for an obtuse angle joint until the joint compound dried the next day and I saw the whole lower side of the tape had pulled away from the wall at the outer edge. Is this able to be salvaged or is a re-tape required? I used SureCorner (normal tape width, not wide like yours) and DAP DexDry joint compound. I'd also be interested to know if there is something I should do differently on my subsequent attempts. Maybe thinner or different mud? Pressing to hard and removing too much compound from under the tape? Thanks for any thoughts.
Not that it really matters in the big scheme of things, but when I first worked on these many years ago, I wondered why they were referred to as 45 angles? Technically it's more of a 135 angle. Obtuse as opposed to acute. Just throwing this out there, no criticism or anything. Ben is awesome and has helped me out many of times but watching his videos🙂
nice tips and good video tis you
thank you
Fantastic thx
Shame I didn't see this earlier before I started my roof conversion. I did it in a similar fashion though and it came out OK
Awesome!
So, I have a 35' run to tape at the pitch of a 2 pitch vaulted ceiling. Any tools on keeping the mud workable for that distance? I have had thinned mud drying on me at around 20 ft.
By the way, love your channel. You have helped make me a decent, if nor slow, taper
This guy is fu**ing talented.
*Thanks for sharing your.Vids are straight forward, thank you for what you are doing here in the community*
I just watched your video how Pros mix drywall mud and do butt joint's I left you a comment, On that video.
By4Now, Merry Christmas,
I am New here to your community, forward to hearing from you.

I was just doing the worst space I've ever had to drywall. It was a "loft" in a tiny house and it had the shallowest angles. The drywall, that was hung by amateurs, did not have a well defined corner and I had to tape on my back because it was only 32" at the highest spot in the ceiling, and multiple angles to reach that peak. I only had paper tape and gave up trying to make it nice. I'm going to basically have rounded corners by the time I'm done. This product would have helped tremendously.
love all your videos ...what do you mean by pre fill
Sweet!
Grat video👍I have Aquabead flex pro, and I wonder if you install it the same way?
Question how do you tape a radius wall at the ceiling?? Been looking no one has a video on this process. Can you make one. I love your vidoes!!! Great job!!
I am a novice, have done some crack repairs so far that have gone well and your videos have helped a lot! I have to redo a 45° inside corner about 8 feet long between wall and ceiling. I will have to remove whatever was used initially, which is cracked and lifting off the corner. After cleaning it out, what should I fill in with first, mud with mesh tape? Then after its filled/taped, then apply the corner bead?
Nice work! Did you caulk that line or just leave it to have straight paint lines?
I have lots of No-Coat tape joints in my house. Unfortuantely in some locations the tape has lifted leaving a separation where the tape feathers onto the wallboard usually the separation is on only one side. Wondering if you have any advice on how to repair. Seems that pulling it all out and redoing it would be a pain. But once it has lost adhesion to the wall on once side I did not think I could mud over it. Can you use adhesive of some kind to bond the lifted tape?
Great video!! Did u prefill with hot mud before install?
Do you have a demo of an off angle external corner where the vaulted ceiling meets a horizontal part of a ceiling? In that instance would you fill the join first or isn't that necessary if you use the no fill composite tape?
Have used variety of those products the only ones that I don't like are the ones that are paper and paper I think they're junk - in other words they don't even have any plastic. Not sure what you think about that but that's my opinion nice video.
Nice trick with snips
Can you apply this stuff after you already put in paper tape? I just taped corners like this yesterday! Watched this video today. Damn.
wish we had that gear in the uk
Any chance you will make a video showing how to install drywall on a sloped ceiling? You do a great job with taping and mudding, but installation might be great.
When you are doing that shallow cieling joint ... it brought to mind a situation I had of similiar cieling that continually cracked ... poorly installed insulation? How to solve? It has been done 1x by builder n 2x otherwise over the years but always cracks within a season cycle of year
I have 4” no coat which went on nice, but so far coating is still a pain.
I don’t have the technique down to ride along one side with mud without gouging the other dried side.
I cut mine strong and make a final cut once I'm in corner you can measure those rolls that good other that the one ft increments marks on the back.
i loved you in that 70's show
Thanks man!
I tried to tape my off angle with easy sand and mesh tape. It looks decent but I'd like it to look crisp. Can I go over what I did with this tape or do I need to sand off what I already did?
Thank you for this. Wonderful instruction. Do you use banjos, bazookas, corner tools or flat boxes?
I've used them all but my current setup is a supertaper with angle tools only. My jobs are too small for production tools.
To measure inside that a use a thin piece of wood longer than half the distance make first mark at end of stick on wall. Second mark move stick to other end and mark stick at mark on wall. Done
No coat seems to stick a lot better than straight flex. Straight flex seems to want to peel up along the edges, even with plenty of mud underneath. It just doesn’t seem too wet as well.
I have an arched cove with multiple walls that curve and meet in the middle on the ceiling. Like a bandshell. I need to repair those arched corners which start at about 15 degrees and go to flat at the ceiling. Would this stuff arch to follow the curvature of the ceiling ?
Any thoughts on using a level or darby when setting this?
When you have really bad framing do you fill out the hollow spots with setting mud to straighten the angle before using the no-coat?
Imif i have minor deviations, I fill with multipurpose joint compound as I'm loading the corner with enough to hold the tape. If it's too big, I fill with small piece or strip of drywall and use construction adhesive to attach it. The fill with multipurpose as I tape. It works for me.
