I had never seen this type of corner bead until I started my carpenter job with my local government. There are so many "drop" ceilings (our word for T bar) and walls are getting built and torn down all the time. It's an awesome product! Your videos have been integral to improving my finishing skills. Keep up the good work!

@T.J. Kong ... I have also used trim boards to hide a gap. If one side happens to ride a bit high you can also use a cap molding, like what we used back when we put beadboard or paneling on the lower half of a wall. You can fine tune the offset with with a power planer to take off just enough for it to lay flat.

You can seamlessly fill a gap like that between the brick and sheetrock with a tile grout that matches the brick mortar. The grout must be applied after the sheetrock is completely painted and dried so you can wipe it clean from the wall. Using a grout bag and a good touch with a sponge you can create an amazing clean line. I've had to do it a few times installing fire place surround against existing sheetrock. A view from a fireplace/tile guy instead of a sheetrock guy.
@romandesnoyers96332 жыл бұрын
Be sure to put painters tape on the edge of the brick, if you use tile grout, when you sponge it, whatever grout color you’re using will get sucked into the brick, and look sloppy, the tape will prevent that, and give you a clean straight finish
@OGJD19842 жыл бұрын
@@romandesnoyers9633 I respect that idea but I feel like I could wipe the brick clean and if some of the grout bleeds into the mortar it will just help the blending process of the two finishes. I resist using tape because with all the water and wiping I'll generally work some behind it and have to clean that up after the tape has been removed. I've been doing tile professionally for about 15 years and I've filled almost those exact same gaps with grout before.

@@romandesnoyers9633 Depends on the grout how bad it will bleed into the bricks or at all but the solution to that would be to seal the bricks before hand. Sealers are also called grout release sometimes. It would keep the color from bleeding into the bricks and help them stay nicer looking over time.

I appreciate you driving the point home about riding the nose. I'm an ISM and although I don't finish these products, I do set them. We recently renovated a family house, they had their "taper" friend do the finishing. I had installed quite a few of these beads in the addition against the brick, dude tried to just cover the holes, leaving that nose exposed (and covered in crusties) everywhere. He also masking taped the tear away bit :s It was hell but stayed after he left one night scraping them all and finished them all myself. If you do happen to see this comment, I wanted to say I've really appreciated your videos and they have helped me many times on side jobs when I'm outside my scope. Also.. just in case anyone needs to know this, that spray adhesive is for plastic beads only.. I also had to remove and replace the paper bullnose beads he sprayed on.

It's so much sturdier than without and the mud sticks just perfect. Also the dried mud is not shine-through at all after just two coats. (Ya, I don't know what happened here, but after applying primer and plaster to the finished surface, all little holes shone through when I went with the "classic method".)

alternately when you hang the drywall your can scribe the drywall to fit. Use a compass set at two inches or so, hold a piece of drywall up close to the brick or stone, then follow the contour of the brick making a parrallel line on the drywall. carefully saw or router the exact line. Next cut the drywall to land on a stud and fasten. Now the very fine gab between the drywall and brick can be caulked.
