ABSTRACT:
The joint between two drywall panels is taped with a paper tape which is backed with a pressure sensitive adhesive. After burnishing the applied tape with a metal or other stiff blade, a water-soaked sponge is moved along the burnished tape to soak the outwardly facing paper surface. The drywall mud is then applied to the wetted paper tape to bridge the joint between the panels without raised or protruding portions of the paper tape, thereby presenting a more continuous and aesthetically satisfying bridge between the panels.
