What happens here

Begin by preparing your misting solution. This can be clean water or a specialized finishing mix, depending on the desired outcome and the type of drywall compound being used. The presenter demonstrates using a Hudson 1/2 gallon sprayer filled with a mix. Ensure the drywall surface has already been prepared with a base coat and is ready for a final skim coat and smoothing. The goal here is to remove any "lap marks" (visible lines from previous compound applications) and achieve a surface ready for sanding.

Goal: Set up materials and understand options for achieving a smooth drywall finish.

Tools and materials

  • Drywall Panel Unspecified — The surface being finished
  • Mister/Sprayer Hudson — Applying a fine mist to the drywall compound
  • Trowel or Broad Knife Mudskip — Smoothing the drywall compound

You can use our finishing mesh. I want to rather grow, so I'm just gonna use that. So there's a mixture in there. There's a mixture in this one, but you can just use water too. It all depends on how you want to manipulate it, and how you want to feel it. Some people just like the Venetian low and they seal it, they don't panic. So it's whatever you want. You just want to use water, you can use water. You can use our mixture, you can use mix. But I'm doing here, so, I've got my lat bark here, and I'm ready for sanding it normal.
