Drywall Finishing FAQ
What is drywall finishing?
- Drywall finishing involves applying joint compound to the seams and screws of drywall sheets and sanding it smooth to create a seamless surface.
What are the different types of joint compound?
- There are two main types:
- Setting-type: Dries through a chemical reaction.
- Ready-mixed: Dries through evaporation.
How many coats of joint compound are needed?
- The number of coats depends on the desired finish level, ranging from Level 0 (no finish) to Level 5 (highest finish). Level 5 requires at least three coats.
How long does joint compound take to dry?
- Drying time varies by type, humidity, and temperature:
- Ready-mixed: Typically dries in 24 hours.
- Setting-type: Can take 24-48 hours.
How do I sand joint compound?
- Use a sanding sponge or fine-grit sandpaper, sanding in a circular motion from the outside in. Always wear a dust mask for protection.
What is texture?
- Texture involves applying a pattern to the drywall surface using a spray gun or trowel, with styles like popcorn, knockdown, and orange peel.
Can I paint over textured drywall?
- Yes, but use a thick nap roller to ensure paint reaches all crevices.
