Our Rapperswill taping and mudding process, step by step

Tape every seam

In Rapperswill we tape all seams and corners first, bedding the tape so it does not bubble or crack later.

Coats, drying time and sanding

We apply mud in coats with full drying time between each, sanding flat and feathering the edges well past the seam, then check under raking light before we call it done.
