INSTALLATION OVERVIEW

 

Gyproc Paper Tape is bedded into the Gyproc Jointing Compound. 

 

If Gyproc Paper Tape is used, bedding is not required, but the joint compound should be pressed through the holes in the tape, particularly if there is a gap between board joints. 

 

After first application of jointing compound and paper tape, second coating is being applied.

 

Final application of jointing compound.

 

At internal angles, Gyproc Paper Tape is creased to the angle to provide reinforcement and bedded using a knife or trowel. 

 

The joint treatment is sanded as necessary to achieve a smooth surface.
