Quick question. Is it ok to see the paper through the mud? I know the drywall is paper also and you paint that but is it ok with the tape? Reason is even after using a setting tool to install the no coat 325 I still see paper in place and after sanding will def hit paper on the corners.

If it is a "no coat" corner, you will see some paper.

Ok cool. I just couldn't see it possible to even install it how they say without seeing paper.

The idea with No-Coat is to hit the edge and feather away from the corner. No compound/spackle/mud on the paper towards the corner.

I quit using No-Coat when I got the BTE corner taping set.

yup your doing fine, with no coat you should see the paper but no dimpled paper

Off topic, but when you said New London, is that the one in Pennsylvania?

Edit: after looking at a map, I assume it's not. Carry on, gents.

I don't normally get out that far. Normally only 10 miles out at most from home normally. If I do ever get that way I will give you a shout though.
