Drywall finisher here. You should still sand in between coats to flatten lift offs. The mud will shrink considerably especially when pulling it tight and you’ll end up needing more coats to make it flat.

[@brianleys6942]

Was gonna say the same thing. You have to sand in between coats

[@Chris-of6xm]

I have to disagree

You don’t necessary have to sand between each coat. But it’s a very good idea before the final skim.

[@HomeandHarmony-youtube]

What sandpaper would I use to sand in between and after. I plan on doing popcorn ceiling removal and skim coating it. Three coats would you say as well? Thanks

[@IZRRL]

And this is why I would rather pay someone to do this part.

The most important thing is if the wall is being flooded with light by a window/door from the side(s). That's called a 'feature wall' and you want to give that kind of wall a 'level 5' finish (A.K.A. skim coat).

[@bzsemo6190]

That was just a trowel mark. Typical in butt joints. It was definitely ready to be sanded. It was not horrible

[@amilli092]

Only on touch ups

[@cantgetright742]

@@amilli092 yeah I’ve only seen it when it’s mostly done and they’re shining light sideways to find the small stuff. Idk if it’s to prevent over sanding or just to save time since you don’t have to go back and sand everything, just the colored areas.

[@mateo10734]

Shit like this is why I love KZbin comments thank you man.

[@brianleys6942]

Yes. Should sand in between coats

[@stargateproductions]

Late to this party but your mud work should be flatter than this and you should lightly sand before your final skim coat.

[@davidjasso6194]

You should cover the whole area once more, not just one pass, it would make your sand process easier and faster! Just saying 🎉🎉

[@kashfortheking]

You know that was just an example right?

Ya can still see the shadow from the butt joint. Impossible to get rid of unless you coat the entire board, think about it.

Shine the light across any wall, and it's gonna look like s#!%. PERIOD! on a level 4 finish, the light has to be 6' from the wall shining directly at the wall.

Stay away from baby butts pal.

[@Long-Island-Sound]

If ANYONE thought that was ready to sand they definitely should not be doing anything with rock-n-mud!

The trick is make whoever spackled it sand it. They'll learn fast

Why don't you really shine the light parallel ? Bring the light closer so we can actually see the REAL imperfections. I know why ... all these half tips on the internet are funny sorry my man been watching you for years and every other drywall "pro" The un educated don't know any better people have very good fronting skills let's see some primed projects under L.E.D I respect it but never should you have lines like that on a skim coat "ready to be sanded " skim coat always supposed to be glass 👌
