How come when I run the box on 0 first coat and sand and skim then finish sand then after painting I can see the flat joints ?? But when I do all coats by hand I never have that problem ??

How many different size flat box you run typically after taping?
@drywallnation Жыл бұрын
Typically two coats after tape. 10" & 12".

I keep a blade in my back pocket to clean the lap joint when running the box, I guess every finisher has their preference! Great video otherwise

I've found when running it tight like 3 the transparency disappears as it dries. Put a trowel edge on it...don't want it humped it will show in a high exposure lighting situation.

Agree. I typically don't go by number on the back either. I go with what looks best on the seam. I frequently adjust my tension when boxing. Every flat box is different. Different thicknesses or types of mud affect the troweling bar differently. Plus wear and tear on blades. Definitely better to run a tighter coat than to overload and cause hummed joints. Especially on ceilings.

@@drywallnation 👍 Amen brotha. Not all joints are perfect fills. Box tuning/maintenance would make for a new video 😉👍 Hi from Vancouver btw...in association with that Label character on Bowen Island 🏝️ You got me onto buttboards a while back.

“Butt” will those seem crack? I do believe the seams are supposed to be staggered.

What kind of grit do you sand with between coats?
@drywallnation2 жыл бұрын
Depends if we're power sanding or pole sanding for pre-sand. Typically when pole sanding we use 120 gritt so we don't have to push as hard. Even if it scratches a bit it's okay because it will be covered with another coat of mud.

I got taught that you should always stagger your joints to spread out the load
