Features

Metal Section: Typically made of galvanized steel or zinc-alu, providing strength and durability.

Paper Tape: The paper tape creates a smooth, paintable surface.

L-Shape: The "L" shape of the trim refers to its right-angle form, designed to be installed around corners where two sheets of drywall meet at a 90-degree angle.

Protection: The metal edge prevents the drywall from chipping, cracking, or denting at the corner.

Aesthetics: The paper face is designed to blend seamlessly with the drywall finish.

Applications

Used primarily to protect exterior drywall corners from damage.

Helps create a clean, professional look where drywall meets the corner.

Installation

Cutting: First we need to measure and cut the Paper Metal Corner Trim to fit the corner area.

Joint Compound: Next we place a thin layer of joint compound along the drywall corner.

Placement: We then press the metal corner trim into the joint compound, making sure it is flush with the drywall surface.

Smoothing: Use a drywall knife to smooth and blend the joint compound around the trim, filling gaps and creating a seamless finish.

Common Use

Outside Corners: For corners that are subject to wear and tear.

Taping and Seaming: Where a smooth, finished seam is desired.

Drywall Repair: Reinforce corners when repairing drywall or repairing damage.

Paper Metal Corner Trim is ideal for creating a long-lasting, beautiful drywall finish while protecting the edges from damage.
