The
Drywall Finisher's Handbook
by L.L. Miller
Paperback: 49 pages
Publisher: PublishAmerica (May 25, 2004)
ISBN: 1413720536 |
| The Drywall Finishers Handbook
is a step-by-step walk-through on how to easily finish drywall. It has all the tricks and
secrets the pros wont share or are too afraid to let you know. This book is based on
my own personal experiences as a professional drywall contractor. I ran the field
operations for a small company in the Midwest for several years. We were a drywall
contractor working in residential, commercial, and restoration, with the majority of our
work being in the residential area. It was in this area that I developed a new and
revolutionary process for finishing drywall. Normally you would spread mud on the wall
with what is known as the pan and knife technique. My new process uses paint rollers to
spread the mud allowing the user to cover much more area in far less time. I have laid out
a step-by-step process that will provide the user with professional results with half the
effort of anything to date. |
