Will using reinforced corner paper tape (with the metal strips) strengthen a normal tapered joint?
The movable wall I am plastering is also curved, therefore a lot of opportunity for movement in the joints - so I’m trying to find a way of strengthening the plasterboard joints to avoid cracking.
Maybe using the reinforced tape won’t do anymore than normal tape, or maybe it will do the opposite and make it more likely to crack - but I thought it was an interesting suggestion. Any thoughts? Anyone used this method before?
