Metal corner tape

Flexible Metal Corner Tape is an Innovation in Drywall. How to use: 1. Cut flexible metal corner tape into one of the two strips with a knife to score and bend. The distance between your cuts will depend on how tight a radius you want to chieve. Apply generous coat of joint compound to a depth of 1/8", covering both sides of the corner the same time.

With the metal facing the wall, fold tape at the center margin and press firmly into the compound.

2. Once the corner is embedded, remove excess compound with taping knife. After the first coat dries, sand lightly, apply finish coat and feather edges two inches beyond edges of the first coat. If needed apply a second coat 6"- 10" wide on each side of corner. When dry, sand lightly if needed.

The wide, galvanized steel strips act as a guide to ensure straight, reinforced angles for both "inside" and "outside" corner needs.
