    I've been rebuilding my house after a natural disaster for the last six months. Finally past hanging drywall and have been working on taping/mudding for the last few days with the help of these tutorials. It's so nice that you've broken these down sequentially by day, such that I watch a video and that gets me going for one (actually more) day of work. Then I watch the next video the next morning, and I'm off to the races again.
    I was really apprehensive to do mudding and taping, as I always thought it to be an art form. With these tricks and clear explanation, I've been able to tackle it no problem. Like you quoted in a previous video, it's just paper mache for adults!! Thanks for the clear explanation on things.

    Thanks for the tips! Like others, your videos have made it possible for me to do acceptable drywall work. As an enthusiastic n00b, I found these tips very handy: 1) If there's a window in the room you're sanding, put a box fan in it blowing out. This keeps the dust out of the rest of the house and your lungs after you take the mask off. 2) Put a pad/cushion on the end of your sanding pole. When you're looking at the wall and hit something with the other end of your pole, that something doesn't get broken, dented, or angry

      What about the dust left on the walls? Do you paint over it, or wipe it down first? If you wipe it down, what do you use? I saw someone wipe it with a damp sponge, but don’t know if it should then be allowed to dry before painting.

    Man i am really happy finding your channel . I made a drywall ceiling and i will say ididnt do good on all the steps. And i painted it allready and now i can see the joints . Please make a video about repairing an allready painted drywall with poorly filled and sanded joints. I know i ask for a lot. Any way i am really thankful for finding this channel. God bless you

    • @Anytus2007
      @Anytus2007 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The fix depends on why you can see the joints.
      If you didn't fill the joints well and what you're seeing is where the tape or edges of drywall sticks out a tiny bit beyond the face of the drywall, then the only thing you can do is mud the joints flat/smooth and then repaint. Drywall mud can go over paint, so its basically the same process as if you hadn't painted. You will probably need to prime the whole surface before painting to get an even finish.
      If you're NOT seeing the edges of the tape and the mud is covering everything and making the ceiling flat/smooth, but you're getting a 'shadow' of the joint through the paint then the problem is with the paint or the process you used to paint. New drywall has to be sealed because the paper face and the mud absorb moisture at different rates which gives you streaks as the paint dries unevenly. Some paints have primers in them that can seal the drywall but some do not. If this is the problem, then you can repaint the ceiling using a primer that seals drywall and then the ceiling paint.

    I want to paint my living room walls but the drywall is very stubbly. This showed up in my recommended lol. I’m just not sure I want to commit that much to a nice smooth finish, though it would make masking off the divide better to prevent bleed …

    • @Anytus2007
      @Anytus2007 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Two things about masking:
      1. Frog tape with the tapered edge and whatever sealing polymer they put on it is just better. It's like 2-3x as expensive as the standard painter's tape, so I only use it in visually important areas that need a crisp line.
      2. You can get a better line on uneven surfaces by caulking right before you paint. Last step before you paint the edge, run a small bead of a paintable clear caulking like DAP Dynaflex 230 Clear down the edge and smooth it with your finger to seal any gaps between the surface and your tape. After you paint the edge, carefully pull the tape while the paint and caulking are still wet to reveal a nice clean line. Because clear curing caulking usually starts white, you may be able to see small spots where the caulking oozed onto the surface under the tape, but in 3-7 days it will cure clear and you'll never see it. It is only visible at very low-angle lighting conditions when the shine difference between the caulking and the drywall can be seen.

    Do you have any advice on a vacuum style sander? Or cleanup in general. I was thinking of just using my air compressor and blasting the dust out of the shed I just finished putting panels up - but I don't know if there's a better way. I see some vacuum sanders on Amazon but they're expensive. Worth buying?

    When should you use the electric sander with the long neck? (Like a Festool Planex lhs). Is it overkill?

    I may have just missed it, but what “paper” did you use on the third poke - the one you used in the corners? And is it really the same as the second poke?

    Ben, I've been working on a renovation in my bathroom. The walls started out with large single piece mirrors on all walls (we bought the house with this bathroom like that), and removed the mirrors to redo the walls. I scraped off the liquid nails and applied shellac to the places where the underlying drywall paper tore. For sanding, will a DeWalt square, vibration sander work, or am I better off getting the pole thingy you talked about? We got the electric one before I saw your channel.

    How do you feel about using a sander like your festool for this with finer grit paper? They have a similar unit on amazon for like 200, obviously not a festool but should do the job.

    The link is for 120 grit foam backed sandpaper. Where can I find 180? Thank you.

    Hi, I watch your videos for quite some time now and I believe I saw you using a planex in the past. Did you quit using it or the goal of this video was to use cheaper tools? If you did quit using it, would you please share why? Thank you!

    Recently the owner of my apartment building had the entire building replumbed and they tore out half my bathroom drywall, put in new and patched the seams (not well). Then the painter came in with the cheapest builder grade paint and did a poor job. I would like to repaint the bathroom but first I want to fill in some shallow gouges that are on the the edges of the drywall where it touches the vanity cabinet (that they didn't fill) but since now there are two coats of cheap paint on top of the gouges what product should I use and will it stick to the paint?
    Or should I remove the paint layer over the gouge with an exacto knife to get down to the bare drywall, fill the gouge (with what?) and then spot prime and repaint the wall?
    Thanks for your help!

      remove any lose debris and clean the walls really well. Feel free to give the old paint a light sanding if it can handle it without getting torn up. Go over everything with a water based primer, it may take a few coats. Fill in any voids with either Spackle or joint compound, wait for it to dry, sand it, and primer the patched spots.
      So long as the primer sticks well enough to the old paint, any fillers and new paint will stick to the primer.

    Pole sanding over electric sanding? Is it better?

    • @johnthumble5154
      @johnthumble5154 ปีที่แล้ว

      I tried electric and it's not a good idea, I even used 400 grit discs and it's still ripped out chunks. Stick to pole sanding. If you're using light top coat it's really not that bad to do.

    How long would sanding the closet take under "normal" working time?

  • @DCtaping
    @DCtaping ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I sand my angles first then screws then flats and butts. Screw sanding will leave marks in your flats🤣 And i sand my angles first because sometimes you sand the screws at the same time.not to over sand screws!🤣👌👍👍😎👊🇨🇦🇨🇦
