    I’ve watched about 40 drywall tutorials on RUclips a lot of them really good but I like that you take the time and the patience to explain all the steps and not just assume us newbies know the things like holding the drill away from your body and such appreciate it thank you for the content.

    I had one of those mix bits it drove me crazy it would always leave lumps in the bottom of the bucket when I mixed base I changed up to a plastic mixer and found my bucket lasted a lot longer.Good video lots of people don’t know how to use boxes but there cheaper and better for the environment👍👍👍👍

    Plus-3 dents if you look at it the wrong way, and it has a gritty texture that makes it difficult to trowel to a smooth finish. I suggest using Midweight, as it is stronger, creamier, easier to apply, and sands almost as easily (and since it is easier to apply, there is less sanding). Plus-3 is also infamous for being the only mud I've used that is likely (as in almost certain) to roll off of my hawk and plop onto the floor. I hate the stuff.
    It's also the only mud I've used that has grown mold. Never had that happen with AP or MidWeight, but several times with Plus-3.
    As for the mixing, you've got to be insane to suggest that you should be using that watery mixture for "screws, or cornerbead" at 6:34. That much water guarantees shrinkage as the water evaporates. As for cornerbead...welcome to callbacks! Plus-3 is so weak that using it on cornerbead borders on negligence. Use Durabond, which is pert' near as hard as concrete for your critical corners.

      I'm sure she appreciates the tips. She's only been doing this for 20 years. I looked for your drywall tutorials but didn't find any. And since the video is sponsored by the manufacturer, if USG disagreed with anything she said they probably wouldn't have wanted her to release the video.

    I'd probably be a halfway decent drywall mud mixer. I'm pretty good at working out ratios and going off consistencies and feelings.
    But if it turned out it was something I didnt like doing I'd follow my golden rule-
    Go full bast with the drill and pull it up outta the bucket n fling it all over the place. 😂
    Usually if it is your first time doing something and you tell them you can get away with pretty much anything. They'll just get all frustrated and be like go do this instead; which works for me! 😀
    The hardest part would be looking all shocked but I got that part down 🤫

    Check the mixer bar for sharp edges, sand paper should smooth them out and stop those plastic bits from happening.

    Hey . I am from Ontario Canada near Toronto . we get USG products but here it's
    CGC brand I guess only for Canada . I am looking at beavel joints behind you and it seems like your 10" box is not fully covering it .. We are having HUGE problems with beavels here my 3.5 " corner finisher is not covering tape very well and also just like yours it's showing beavels so we gotta open 12" box to compensate .. Also mud lately is full of pinholes ( fisheyes ) do you notice any of this ??? 😎

      Their both made by usg but Beadex brand muds are regional. They are typically in the northwest and they have some that are made specifically for what finishers are applying in that area.
