I've been with ya Guy for quite a while now. I can't thank you enough for helping me become an expert with small drywall jobs with texture. Thank you so much!
I've been seeking for this detailed courses for new comers just like me getting started on this job and I can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge and best practices with all of us. Wish i wasn't broken right now to signup into your Masterclasses and get a copy of your eBook, but I will eventually get back on my feet and will be more than happy to support you as well. In the mean time i think the best i can do is Subscribe, Like, Comment and Share your content. Thank you again and regards from the Dominican Republic!
I have found out , from square box kind with mud in plastic bag, add little water, stir, spread on wall, mist with water from spray bottle, and paper tape, press on and smooth out with taping knife. THEN LEAVE IT ALONG. I used fiberfuse for flat and paper for bends / angles
I never knew that mesh tape required fast-setting compound. Always used regular compound and never seen cracks. But just a homeowner who has restored several rooms and a new addition.
I ordered the 2” x 13” mixer from Level5, and it was $13.05. I submitted the order, and the balance was $27.60. The item said $13.05; the rest was shipping-no more level5 tools for me. Columbia is looking better and has a metal handle connection. It's also made in Vancouver British Columbia which is a big win. I live I. The United States and I'm a veteran too Guy.
Nice detailed instructions as always. I have a couple of spots where I’m going to have to retape. This & your other videos will enable me to do the job right when I get around to it. Like you I’m a senior & don’t always have the get up & go like I used to. lol Getting old sucks !!
I'm just now putting the finishing paint on my bedroom ceiling that I removed a really nasty mop texture from. I used a Wen mid-mount drywall sander, and it almost killed my arms because I'm not used to holding weight above my head. The sander worked ok, but it did really badly at collecting dust because the surface wasn't flat. The entire job turned out pretty darn good for someone who's a complete novice at this sort of stuff. The whole thing started because I had to redo the inside corner tape for two of the walls where they met the ceiling. The tape was curled, and sloughing off the ceiling, and it just looked hideous. I used all the techniques I learned from you, and another gentleman called Vancouver Carpenter. There's still quite a few minor errors here, and there, but the end result is still night and day from how it originally looked. Now I get to do the bathroom, and vanity room, and eventually will do the other two bedrooms in the house. When I do those I plan to try the soak, and skim/peel method for the mop textures because it's just too aggressive to use the sander on in terms of time, and ease. The one thing I'm terrified of is snagging the tape on the joint knife. Is that something I should worry about? Thank you for all your knowledge and information. I couldn't have done what I have without your help!
Guy, I put up corner beads with 45 minute Easy Sand. The next day, the edges in multiple areas of the paper had lifted. I must have wiped it too tight? But for some reason it didn’t stick. What should I do now? Add another layer of mud, or try to glue the areas down with spray adhesive or glue? Thank you!
If it’s minor lifting you can cut out the areas that lifted and just mud over that spot. If it’s major you may have to remove it and start over or cut out the bad section www.DrywallAcademy.com
@ThatKiltedGuyDIY OK, maybe that was it. I was just double checking on the specs for Plus 3 vs ES & they highlight the ES being more moisture resistant, therefore recommended for use in bathrooms. I was running through all of the reasons I might want to use something else in there, and the screw hole question popped up (pre-filling screw holes). Thanks!

Excellent vid really great tips ...Stay well

Yes it does
At 5:30 you say that mesh tape needs a fast setting joint compound but you show a picture of All Purpose +3. Could be confusing.

I haven't had too much of an issue digging in and tearing tape with a knife (except being inattentive to corners). A few drinks were involved 😅
Gold knowledge. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Sure appreciate you Guy....Your tech rules...

@@ThatKiltedGuyDIY OK, thanks for the info. Very helpful.
I'm watching #1 now and it's great. I'm gonna try to comment on each and every one.
Guy, I recall from an older video you recommended NOT using a particular mud for filling screw holes. Which mud were you referring to? Thx!
Hot mud shouldn’t be used in really thin coats. So it’s ok for screws but not the best idea
@ThatKiltedGuyDIY OK, maybe that was it. I was just double checking on the specs for Plus 3 vs ES & they highlight the ES being more moisture resistant, therefore recommended for use in bathrooms.
