Mudding Drywall Patches Made Easy
Mudding drywall patches made easy is what this DIY howto video is about. VideoJoe is right in the middle of patching a sheetrock wall & there's a few steps needed when doing drywall patches. Self adhesive webbing tape is a must for sure before putting on & applying the first coat of what VideoJoe calls quickset which is a fast setting drywall compound that dries pretty quick & won't shrink & that's what you want when you do drywall patches. Once the first coat of quickset has been applied over the webbing tape then VideoJoe applies a second coat of quickset to fill up the voids & bridge out over the first coat of quickset. Then VideoJoe applies a first coat of all purpose joint compound over the quickset. Then that coat of joint compound needs to dry all the way before he knocks down any little edges he might see before applying a skim coat of mud over that using the all purpose joint compound again. Then that layer of mud has to dry all the way, usually overnight, before he will then sand his drywall patch areas. Whew sounds like a lot of work. Well yes it does but you will get good at it if you just get in there & try it out. A great way to save yourself some money for sure since you won't have to pay a drywall contractor to come out & finish your drywall patches & charge you an arm & a leg for the repairs! VideoJoe wants to help save that arm & leg for you so you can keep keeping on! Why pay someone else when you can do it yourself & that goes for drywall patches & repairs too!
