Zusammenfassung:The joint between two drywall panels is taped with a paper tape which is backed with a pressure sensitive adhesive. After burnishing the applied tape with a metal or other stiff blade, a water-soaked sponge is moved along the burnished tape to soak the outwardly facing paper surface.
