I just suck at finishing. Im good at many types of jobs but not finishing. That's why we have men like you.

@xbadandy182x 4 месяца назад

I am a first time home owner. About 8 months into our new construction home. The builder did a real sloppy job with alot of the finishing work and I've been fixing alot of stuff as I go through and paint. I've learned so much from your channel. I watch it every night for hours. Watching you blend that knockdown texture was absolutely fantastic. We have knockdown ceilings here. Now I know if I ever have to repair and blend an area - I can watch this video over and over and practice

Old kilty is my favourite as he shows you all ways to repair the job from beginning to the end, i trusted him from the beginning when he put screws both sides of the crack, a taper that repaired my mums house didnt do this and the crack reappeared, thankyou for your advice.

@xamphoa Год назад

+1 to using hot mud. I just repaired a similar amount of cracks at my house (50+). I'm not a fan of mesh tape though. I like the "crack tape" as it has more sheer strength to resist future cracks. The most important, often overlooked step is to, when possible, reattach the cracked drywall to a stud with screws. If you don't, it will likely crack again. Great video!

@dal8963 2 года назад

We have had $25,000 worth of addional peirs down to the bedrock added to our home and foundation work however we live on soil that is clay and impossible to keep the same moisture level in Texas summers. So we have been getting rid of our texture for flat walls so that it's supper easy to fix cracks without having to match the texture or pull out a hopper your texture matching was excellent. Our old texture was a orange 🍊 peal knock down.

@Chris.Rhodes 2 года назад

When talking about mesh tape versus paper tape...I don't use paper tape at all unless I'm doing inside corners, I always use hot mud and fibafuse over mesh tape. Everyone has their own preferences, but I've come to really love the fiberglass tape over mesh tape. If your mud is a little thin, it soaks right in and creates a super strong bond. Great video as always Guy!

@brentjackson9332 Год назад

Hi I want to re secure the drywall around some cracks like you show but I am worried about hitting wires and pipes. The house is old and has been added onto and remodeled so there are likely wires and pipes ran through the framing all different ways without nail plates protecting them. I know using small screws helps but any other advice or tips for avoiding those issues? Thanks

@anthonyflores9336 Год назад

Love your videos, I’ve watched so many and they have been so helpful in running my solo man handyman business, THANK YOU! My question is why you prefer the yellow mesh tape (thicker) and if you have used the white fine finish tape and your thoughts? Do you use exclusively the yellow and if so, why? I tend to like the white thinner one myself.

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY Год назад

yellow is easier to find, and i can make both work just as well

@bradwillis2732 2 года назад

I own my own business starting out and have not textured yet. How long after priming the knock down... can you then apply the paint afterward? The knock down being porous will absorb the primer and the primer will dry slower correct? So how long does that primer need to set up on the knock down? 🤔 Love your videos TKG! You're my number 1 source of drywall knowledge

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 2 года назад

Thanks, I’m glad I can be of help. I highly recommend you read the primer instructions and follow the recoat time. Usually it’s one hour but it’s sometimes four hours so follow their guidelines for best results

@kalebbillig3472 7 месяцев назад

How did you get the hot mud to look like the same exact color as the wall?

@meetthebutcher 11 месяцев назад

How many times I scolded hangers for breaking a board on a door edge or header or leaving a butt on the lid at the corner of a load bearing wall's outside corner ..., I'd rather deal with a full butt than get called back after the house settles. Also under piece for joint support and paper tape your bullnose connection seams ..all of them! I don't care how you installed them mud on , clench, spray glue, nail/screw, they will crack where 2 pieces meet if you do not tape them. I also paper tape or mesh tape the edges of the bead to the wall every time no exceptions as well as all the angles created by wrapped windows and doorways ect. I only made it 16 seconds in this video before commenting , I have faith That Kilted Guy DIY will explain the causes and resolve the issues with ease ! I have a sneaky pro hack for small cracks when the most cost saving solution is needed and it really works .

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, tape any place to pieces of rock come together, including inside windows, and mesh over cornerbead, IF you don't use tape on. On my own house, I would ONLY use tape on bead as it's tougher, doesn't rust and sticks to the wall instead of being fastened to the wall every 8" or so.

@melaniesheen1642 Год назад

Just found your channel, I'm a total beginner at painting and wall preparation, I've stripped a wall that I'm just wanting to paint but whoever put the paper up had gouged several diagnol lines into the cement ( I cant believe this is true for one minute but some folks I've spoken to said that's what some people did to the walls in the beleaf that the paper would hold better, like I say I find that crazy as isn't that what paste is for), So I've got walls that are unsmooth and with purposely made cracks, should I fill the cracks with filler first or skim the walls, I'm at aloss as where to start,

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY Год назад

Fill them first by applying mud into the crack and wiping it tight.

@joefera8947 3 месяца назад

For the inside angles: after caulking, do you still mud and tap over it or just leave it as is? I have a diagonal wall crack that merges into a corner separation.

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 2 месяца назад

If you use a high-quality caulking like big stretch and the crack wasn’t really large, and you don’t put so much on that it looks like a silver streak running up the angle, then I just caulk it

@TapelessDrywallFinishing 2 года назад

@giannicarrero4516 2 года назад

Wouldnt it be easier to scrape a channel around the crack to fit the tape to avoid having a hump and prevent so many coats of mud to blend it in with the surrounding area?

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 2 года назад

I can do it this way faster and it doesn’t show but I have been doing this since I was a kid and I’m 61 years old. For novices it might be faster for you to scrape it out. I remove the joint tape if it peels off easily but this was done with mesh tape the first time by the mobile home company who tried to fix it without fixing the foundation and it just failed again. The mesh tape didn’t want to come off easily so I did it this way.

@nicci4126 11 месяцев назад

do you water down your joint compound when you are skim coating?

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 11 месяцев назад

The rule for watering down drywall mud is, if you feel like it’s making you work too hard to spread it, thin it down. If it’s dripping too much, you thinned it down too much.

What do you think about putting a little hot mud to hold the tape on instead of adhesive?

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY Год назад

Over mesh, you should use hot mud. Adhesive is optional

@Bapuji42 Год назад

@@ThatKiltedGuyDIY Oh ya, I meant putting a little hot mud down before the mesh, like you do taping seams with paper tape. Unnecessary?

You mentioned a long-haul covid. I have had bad breathing problems since I got covid two years ago and it hasn't gone away. I've had X-rays done and nothing shows up. I'm sure it has something to do with it because I never had problems before but what I don't understand is it has been 2 years and my breathing has not gotten any better, actually I think it's gotten worse.

What kind of mud did you use for the second coat? With mesh tape, once it’s been embedded with the first coat, it’s okay to use all purpose or topping for the second and third coats, correct?

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 4 месяца назад

AP or Plus 3 after embedding it

@jeffcook8635 4 месяца назад

@@ThatKiltedGuyDIY thanks. I was taught that topping compound is good to use for a third final coat. Do you not like topping compound?

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 4 месяца назад

It works fine, but I get by just fine with nothing but Plus 3, so why swap around and have to carry so many different muds? I've tried topping many times and couldn't tell the advantage. Kind of like handing Slash a cheap guitar, he'll make it sound damn amazing. I'm that way with mud, I can make them all work for me so why switch so much. I switch some, but try to limit it. And topping CAN NOT be used for the first coat on cornerbead, so there's that limitation. Plus 3 does it all so I mostly use that.

I’m hanging drywall in a bathroom. I’ve seen conflicting things and what type of tape to use. Do I need to use fiber tape or is paper tape ok? I want to do it once and #DoItRight

@ThatKiltedGuyDIY 2 года назад

There’s no tape requirement for bathrooms. However if you use mesh tape you have to use fast setting mud. I recommend all purpose and fibafuse for novices but paper tape works fine if you can do it without getting blisters. I teach that in several videos though
