I've had a blue line taper for 26 years the way I've always cleaned mine is just to take the head plate off ( 2 screws) and blast any cement out of it with a hose pipe A lot easier than taking the whole head off . Always worked for me you get absolutely soaked doing it so it's my last job of the day. One comment here says that the taper looks like cheap junk , speaking personally My Blue Line taper is still smooth and has never let me down.

Anyone that thinks spraying can be level 5 coating is a idiot are the ones sitting not working. If you want to get a good level 5 coat. Its hand skimming from up and down than to side by side.

If you are spraying, MOP the walls down with a 24inch microfiber style mop slightly damp. It clears the dust for a better result

I always used leftover tan latex paint to mix in the mixture. Actually used 3 mud to 1 paint. Or about 1 gallon paint for 3 to 4 boxes of mud. This makes it really easy to see any areas that need touchup and after sanding and feathering the edges of the touch up with a wet sponge, you will always be able to spot prime with ease. This method was used on many multi million dollar resort homes in Big Sky Montana.
@NexusCapital3 жыл бұрын
Are you able to sand with this mixture?
@billykkutter3 жыл бұрын
@@NexusCapital Sanded all walls and ceilings two directions. Sounds like a lot of work but use 180 or 150 grit and it is really fast and easy. Not a lot of grinding, just a little pressure and do about 6 ft length then backtrack the other direction. The painters love the finished product.

@billykkutter3 жыл бұрын
I used a 15 inch cement trowel and layed 3 wide with a smooth pass down the middle just above the tape. Then on the final I would do the same and sand smooth. Sometimes I had to build up the low side even more.@@williamferguson7234
