Floating a wall or any other surface is the process of getting the drywall compound out of the bucket and spread on the wall in a thin smooth coat that is feathered out so it will be easy to sand.It would be hard to "tell" you online how to do this but go here Drywall Tools and Materials or Drywall Finish Coat and Texture. In this section,pay attention to the Ceiling Skim Coat section.I know your not doing a ceiling but the principal is the same. If this doesn't get you on your way get back to us and we will move ahead from here......Mike
