Re: Fiberglass mesh or paper tape for mud joints?

Paper for all. I've been around some mesh tape, never used it for
actual taping...just repairs and large gaps that need filling.

It seams pun intended ;-) to me that I can achieve a smoother finish
using paper tape, no banjo, just the spool hanging from my belt. I
find bubbles can be greatly dimished by using thinned mud, and making
sure there's a decent bed when laying the tape.

To each there own...use what works for you.
