Shoutout to the guy who taught me to shim corners before the tape goes on
I was working a basement remodel in Topeka back in November. Finished the whole ceiling and started taping the corners. About halfway through I notice the corner bead is pulling away from the drywall in a spot near the window. It looked like a wave in the wall. I tried to muscle it back with extra mud but it would not stick flat. After fighting it for an hour I finally pulled the bead off and shimmed the stud behind it with a piece of cardboard. That fixed it. The corners laid flat after that. Has anyone else had a corner bead fight you even when the wall looked flat to the eye?
