Hello Forum Members, I recently closed up a door opening in our kitchen with sheetrock. I taped and mudded both sides and continued to feather out each vertical butt joint. Here is my issue. The inner side of each feathered butt joint were feathered so they met in the middle of the door opening. When I lay I 16in. knife in the center of the door opening i can see a slight gap in the middle of the knife (when layed against the wall) showing the tapering of both edges toward the center of the wall. I hope I am explaining this well enough where you are still following me. My question is: once painted will you be able to see this slight dip or is this how it should look. If not, any recommendations on what I should do? I thought about taking one very thin pass with mud down the area where there is a slight valley, however I thought that would make both tapered edges buldge out. Your knowledge and thought is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tom

Hello, I am new here so I hope I do this right. We had a new shower installed in one of our bathrooms. After the men left I started to remove the wall paper. The walls were not primed I guess as the drywall came off with the paper. I have a area of about 3x6 feet that is just brown paper. The other area's also have damage but not as bad as this area. My question is this. Do I take off all of the drywall down to this layer or do I just sand and then prime? I have ordered Gardz to prime the walls. I could send a picture if this would help with answers. Thank you for any help. Susan
