How the Pro's Mix Drywall Mud and Apply Tape

[@monkeyman8265]

there's something soothing about watching a person work that's a master of their craft.

[@TokyoCraftsman]

I went back to see what drill he was using because of one of the comments and found myself watching this video all over again.

[@bradley3549]

This is one of the better taping videos on youtube that I keep coming back to. Straight and to the point. Not a lot of superfluous talking. Just watch a pro do his thing and try to absorb his technique. For someone like me, who does drywall a room at a time every couple years I'm really just looking for a refresher and this is it.

@@walterboudreau7791 Yes it is, takes a good 5 years to even consider going on your own. For a few reason - A) knowing how to price a job. B) being fast enough to do the job in a certain time frame, hence 5 years experience and C) being good enough so your work doesn't look like shit. Because if it does, your ass will be coming back to fix it all.

[@kjbrand]

Just had a guy tape/mud a small job - amazing skill and dexterity. He was a philosopher about the job. "Every building . . . commercial & residential . . . has wall board. There's always plenty of work." He went on to say how he like to leave his jobs 'invisible.' He worked to keep the surfaces and joints the 'secrets' he left behind. I talked to my wife about how he turned the intention of a design: shapes, surfaces, angles into reality. That is what the 'trades' do - they deliver aesthetic reality where designers & engineers simply contemplate intention. He also said that he like the low stress of the job. "Floor and cabinet guys have to stress about mistakes, they can't do it over." he said. But he gets to start over to make it right anytime he wants. Brilliant video!

[@DiscoFang]

So true. The design made real; the mistake stress; the therapy and meditation of repetition in drywall stopping. I'm a designer (a degree and all - architecture first, then graphics) but have been involved with and doing construction since I was a kid. Dad was a philosophy propfessor ( I kid you not) and he was also involved with demolition (again I kid you not). Design and construction is what I do now and much prefer the "making it real" side of it. Nothing says truth like making something real. My favourite things are timber framing and mud/stopping/plastering. It's like playing as a kid. The stress part of construction/creating you mentioned cannot be underestimated. By far the most stressful thing is bench-top cutting. One slip, chip or mis-measure and bam! Start over. With plaster it's whack! Chip! Redo. Done. Smooooooth & crisp.

Yes, im learning and want to keep practicing. I always thin my premade mud, but I still have it too thick. Thanks for the tip. I clicked on it after doing a remodel on our half bath in our old house so it was probably tricky for a rookie with uneven corners and such, but I think it's ok. I'm getting better so now I see my first project and want to redo it..embarrassed of how bad it looks. Haha. Took down old pieces cabinets and didnt float well. I can still see where the cabinets were. I think I may. Any tips?

[@eyespy3001]

@@melanierust7129 The beauty of finishing walls is that, in most cases, you can always improve upon an already-existing bad job without having to start over from scratch. There are different levels of finishes you can apply to the wall using mud with some sanding in between applications. Look up drywall level finishes here in youtube to get an idea of what I’m talking about. Good luck with your projects!

I'm renovating my own house doing my own boarding and taping. From the very beginning of this video I started learning new stuff. The bucket dump (why didn't I think of that?!?!), the way he applies the mud and seats the tape and so much more. This guy is an absolute pro. It's still comforting to see that even a pro like this drops a little mud on the floor occasionally. I've got enough mud on my floors to tape a small house. :) Thanks for this!

[@HistoricHomePlans]

What a pleasure it is to watch a pro at work. Not a wasted moment or movement. Thanks for sharing this.

[@Iven2320001]

Go watch again, a good finisher, would have applied the mud, and then the tape to the flat with a total of 5 movements. This guy had 9 just applying the mud. A real finisher, Would have pulled from the corner of the flat that hits the corner, pulling 4 to 6 ft on the first spread, Then Another load and spread finishing most likely the apply of mud, but I gave another movement just in case. Then go back to the start of the mud spread and apply the tape, This is one full non stop movement taking about 5 seconds. Then after cutting the tape. The wipe is starting at the corner again, pulling into the corner, tighting the tape and good seal in the corner, and then the final fifth movement, pulling the tape tight, wiping the mud down, leaving no edge like this guy, Tape is tight, unlike this guy, good pack on the seam, unlike this guy.. and is over in about 15 seconds, Not the 4 minutes like this guy. Also, you would not need to go get a scraper and clean the floor like you will after this guy is done. He dropped about half a knife worth of mud just wiping the flat. Also, As someone who has been taping for 20 yrs. This guy has to be single, As no wife would put up with their washing machine being destroyed every few months. This guy is bathing in the mud. A true finisher, would have a few specs on his clothes. He knows when the mud is gonna fall, and how to not stand under it. This guy is doing a wall, an he is this sloppy, I would hate to see him doing overhead work. To be honest, I would probably pay this guy 70 bucks to 100 a day, no more, and base that on a 8 hour day. He is a floorman. The stilt man, or second lead, is a 250 dollar a day man.. who is doing all the overhead and having to get down off his stilts and help this guy finish up hos 40 boards he ran all day, when the overhead guy in the same area just ran 100 to 140.. and finished a hour or two before him, and is now running 30 to 40 boards in 2 hours.. cause they are 3 times faster then this guy. Lead man is in the high cealing and doing the high dollar work, putting the corner bead on, straight flex, doing the 45 angles, Then jumpin on stilts, and showing the second lead why he is still the second lead cause he is just to fast to keep up with.. then they both get down and make the floor man look like the beginner bitch.. Rant over.. That is a REAL Finishing CREW!

I'm an old timer; this guy is good. This is how I was taught the trade. Way back they didn't have Ready Mix mud. It was a powder and had to be mixed perfect or you would have lumps. I use to use the old hawk and trowel. The webbing tape is better. Later 8"- 12" inch knives were incorporated to do the bedding. The only fall back about the webbing tape is you can't use it in your angles. Still, have to use paper. I use to wear stilts. I was young and fast I could hang 250 ft roll of tape in 30 minutes. I have used bazookas, bed boxes, angle tools, nail spotters. It is good to watch a professional do it the old fashion way.

I didn't overlap the tape like Chad did. I like his reasoning 3. My mud was way too thick. 4. On long flats, I didn't put a few feet and then tap in place and then a few more feet and tap - like Chad did. His method makes way more sense that what I did. 5. I'm way to finicky about the tape near the floor on the butts. I mess around trying to cut the tape perfectly for some stupid reason 6.

Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to film, and share! Years ago I was mudding and taping my garage on a new house I bought. The builder was still in the neighborhood knocking out other houses. He stopped by and checked out my work. One thing he noticed was the "pocks" or little holes in the mud here and there after I applied it. He suggested before I mix the mud with water in the 5 gallon pail, add an "X" of dawn dish soap at the top of the mud. I did this in preceding batches and it helped alot. Thought it was worth sharing! Thanks again!

Good clean work brother. Began as a Plasterer here. Certain disciplines, good and bad, from that training now mingle with my drywall work.

As a old retired eyeball drywaller from way back, I like when a traditional style finisher makes it look this easy. These guys with pneumatic bazookas and boxes, go fast, but I still think the hand work is better.

Joel LaJuett it’s not.

I been doing this trade for around 17 years now... so nice to see someone who takes pride in his work... and knows what he's doing. Only thing I do differently is instead of applying mud sideways I use a full 5 inch knife and just cut the excess mudd off the corners of the knife... that way none falls and never worry about going back to fill the bevel. Awesome job.

Dude 15 mins! He mix and taped a whole damn wall!! PRO level 1000!

[@devonwesticles]

He shoulda had a whole room with a ceiling taped and wiped

I like this method, usually I cake the area with mud and then do some massive sanding but this is way better. Including your easy setup

[@bltn7469]

William may triggered

[@whenibecamethesun..8759]

William may cake and massive sanding...the only way to do it....youre done, bud

[@Stellarspace95]

William may lol lol and lol, yes I used to apply a "slightly thick coat" of mud and I sanded until the area was even. I didn't dump half the bucket on one area of the wall.. your imagination is probably going somewhere far.. far from reality! Besides, any normal construction labourer would know exactly how much is too much, your sanding arm will let you know after just one wall of experience 😂

Excellent! This man teaches by doing it. Great example. Professional.

Hi and Hello. I gather people for a good cause: I wanna provide people with Links leading to bad or toxic people. Mobber, Racists, Sexists, Bullies, more. I got the Links and i need help with reporting them. KZbin is in a bad state and i think you heard of that. Many complain about it, its strike-system and its CEO: Susan. But... I mean... complaining about the State of the world is nice and dandy, but... how about acting? Doing something? So i made a Wiki where i store Links for all to use. Yeah, unorthodox, i know, but whatever. Its my Try to help. You can at least pre-emptive 'block user' regarding the Racists and all those, but you can also do one thing more and report them. You surely know what a mess youtube is, so? What do you think about all this? I mean, its a good cause, improving the internet and the world, and it costs no money, just time. Nice or not? I'm sure this comment didnt made it all clear, but point is, i wanna act and help others to act, not just complain. If somethings not clear, ask Questions; that normally helps with confusion.

[@josehdedios2831]

You are an artist. Changed my perspective of how to finish drywall.

[@TheHempforlife]

Awesome job! Thanks guys. We need more professionals teaching people so they can get off the couch and work.

[@cdurkinz]

I'm a painter and sometimes I have to do a little of this.... you guys make it look so easy lol. I cannot for the life of me figure out how you guys get such straight runs of mud. When I get done it's wavy on the outsides so I know I'm doing it wrong. Also probably takes me 10 times as long as you guys to get the same look. (mostly lol)

[@DeuceGenius]

Press harder use thinner mud

[@Abre303bReaL]

After seeing this video I try to copy your moves man this is skills and good labor at its finest. You seem to be active af with a sense of urgency. Something lots are not aware off.

[@michaelmendillo4614]

A Hawk & Trowel, and a Pan & Knife Man ! My kind of man !!! Easy too see you been at this awhile,,, I am retired after 35 yrs, my back is completely fucked ! Wish I could be out there though ! I always loved finishing drywall, and made some good money doing it !!!

[@tecumsehperank4366]

Learning from my boss. Makes me happy to watch these videos and know that we are doing professional work as well. Good work man

[@pacemetalfab]

It's always a pleasure to watch a professional at work !!! Great job.

[@Maria_Jose_Vera]

I'm getting into drywall finishing and you're my hero now

[@johnwaters7847]

Great decision 👏 👏👏👏 Woman also can make a decent salary in construction

[@traveler7353]

So finishers don't hang the drywall they just come in to mud and tape?

[@ghettoaquatics5244]

Yo if this dudes your hero im here to take his cape . look into hoppers and banjos ! This is like the 1980s way of taping . i dont know how people still do it like this and keep up production. It doesnt even do a better job his way 😒🤦

[@K3Flyguy]

Only a pro is as fluid, effective, and as smooth as he is! Thanks for sharing, I picked up a few things!

[@justintrussell7739]

The best taping tutorial I have ever seen..
