Does anyone know how to install rounded plastic trim corners to drywall?

Answer 1

whatever you do DO NOT use glue or nails. I agree with the other answers tho. Here in Canada we call it Round Bead, and you put it on the same way as a regular 90 degree corner bead. After mudding, make sure to wipe the bead as clean as possible before sanding, reduces the risk of grinding a fine line in the mud when sanding. As long as the bead is clean before sanding you won't have a problem.

Answer 2

It's called bull nose folks,you can use metal, PVC,or the tape on kind which is the best. The metal and PVC can be stapled on then taped on as a secondary measure. Remember, the drywall must be held back flush with the framing in order for the bull nose to work. Fill the bull nose bead the same way you do regular corner bead,then sand lightly when done.Don't forget the base at the bottom, you must add special pieces to make the transition to the base.

Answer 3

I've installed thousands of sq. ft. of drywall, and trim, and wonder about the other answers.

Are you speaking of protectors for edges/corners???? OR are you talking about corner molding that's rounded instead of being a 90 degree edge?

If it's the latter, you need to install them as you would a 90 and then, mud and sand until the feathered mud vanishes into the wall as it extends from the corner, then paint.

There are 2 techniques I even have executed this interior the previous, first of all,you will smash a ton of cloth in case you attempt kerfing the backside, and it will never bend to a real radius The techniques I even have executed it are a million- laminating quite a few skinny layers of wood till your needed thickness is executed, of direction that's plenty greater stable to do whilst the baseboard has a profile and demands some progressed woodworking skills. any incorrect way i've got executed it quite is to apply 221/2 degree angles going around the corner. this technique would not look as stable for the reason that your utilising on the instant lines on a rounded corner and you finally end up with small voids on the final of the baseboard.(they are able to be packed with caulking) to try this you're able to desire to run your longer products down the ingredient partitions and cap the exterior of the corner, connecting all 3 products with 22 a million/2 angles. that's the easier of the two procedures hint- draw your lines on the floor first to parent angles.

Answer 5

Use a staple gun with short staples. I normally use a staple gun for corner beads. Make sure that you trim the corner a bit first to accept the bullnose, or it will "rock". Then compound it in.
