Hi all

New member - first post!

I was wondering if somebody could give me some pointers on using Cornertape. I've watched the videos and it says to tape up the (3-way) corners first using three 5cm or so lenghts. Forgive me if I am being very thick but I am not sure I understand how to do this! Do I need to fold or mitre the joints in some way?

Any tips or pointers would be great.

Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy, :welcome: to Tilers Forums

Although I have not used cornertape..............................yet, I think the method, as you have said, is cut 3 5 cm lengths, I would imagine that the vertical length can be set first, then set the 2 horizontals, cut out the overlaps that are not needed, this should give you the 3 way junction, there is a short vid on here somewhere that shows the finished 3 way, I'll see if I can dig it out.

EDIT: found it here.

Hope it helps
