Drywall Installation and Mudding

right, let's turn on the water line and see if uh we made [music] mistakes. [laughter] Boom. Breaks in half. [music] Mudding. We're going to be taping all the drywall door. The mix that we're going to use, this is the drywall mix. Now, what's cool about this, the easy 90, that means it takes [music] 90 minutes to harden. So this is accelerated significantly than the basic step. Create [music] a nice sliver right between the joints and start squeezing out the mud. The remainder can go right on top of that tape to give a better saturation. [music] So now in case you're going to do uh corners, the tape has a little perforated or creased already in the middle of it. Now all you got to do is just go with the crease. Don't fight the crease. [music] We need a little backward. So I'm going to put this in the back with pocket holes. space it out accordingly. So what I mean by accordingly, these have to come out far enough that I still have about a/ quarter inch, 38 of an inch, whatever the thickness of the tile backsplash is going to go on. Afterwards, you have to blend everything out. So this is how wide this particular mud is. The paper is the bridge, right? So now we have to blend it out this way. [music] All right, we're ready for our first float. Obviously, this triel is a little bit wider. We're going to create a nice thin coat. I diluted this pretty thin. And then we're going to keep the tri laying closer against the drywall. So, just like that. Nice firm press. And all we're doing is trying to get this blend going a little bit wider. I'm going to hit it with 220, actually 180. Psych. uh really lightly. [music]
