I got samples of this new interior exterior board material called magnesiacore and it looks excellent. It sells direct to consumers by full pallets delivered to anywhere in North America if there are no stocking retailers in the area. I want to use it to do my garage interior using a brad nail gun. Has anyone used it?

Thanks

You wanna install WALLBOARD with a brad nailer???!

Is it made of sytrofoam??

If it is gypsum...I hope you have ALOT of life insurance when those finish nails give up!

No. It's a light weight kind of cementitious mineral board that can be worked like a wood particleboard for cutting, machining and nailing but can be refinished and painted like gypsum drywall. There is no separate skin material on it. It's a solid plaster-like material but more like a cement board only smooth and even like drywall.

Ok, aside from this incredible 'cementious mineral board' that you are anxiously touting on 2 forums (that we are aware of)...

........Do you have any other points to post......... that would be relevant to this forum ?????????

And it makes thousands of Julian fries!!!


But seriously I think they sell this already. It's called hardiplank soffit material.

Why would this be better than sheetrock. We all know, sheetrock is cheap, easy to work with, forgiving of installation mistakes, finishes well, all around easy to use. Why would I use your product?
