HAHAHA So true!
Unfortunately there are so few people who DIY these days. If we had more of us, the Pandemic would have never stood a chance.
sadly true....
I do this for a living : drywall and taping. I have a respirator mask with 2 separate filters attached. Those filters can stop particles around .5 to .3 microns.
Corona viruses ( covid, the cold, flu, etc ) are around .03. I have WHMIS certification for masks. EVERYONE that knows me knows what I do, and knows I have that certification.
You can SHOW people, right on WHMIS, the efficiency of masks and all the types. Not ONE mask you can buy can stop particles that small.
You think that wakes people up, though? Nope. The TV told them cloth / surgical masks work - even though it says right on the boxes they don't.
You're trying to explain science to the followers of scientism. The ones who think a children's show host with an engr mech degree (Bill Nye) has the same qualifications as a virologist.
I know... it's gone from clown world to straight bizzaro lol
If we had masks that could stop virii and disease, they wouldn't allow O2 in or CO2 out, and we'd all be dead by now.
Yep, it's right there for anyone with a working brain to see.
Same thing as trying to get people to wake up with the testing. It's right there on the rapid tests : detects sars / cov2 virus. Doesn't say covid. Doesn't say the flu.
I try to get people to see it right there. "You could have H1N1 or swine flu, or just the cold" "No no no no. It's covid" Fingers in ears, tongue out, eyes clenched shut.
Yes, and if you wear one of those masks (as though it would stop a virus when it really only reduces dust inhaled) people STILL complain because of the gasket on the exhale.
...the world is full of stupid people...
...it is refreshing to know that you are not one of them....
Thank you friend. I just go by Occam's Razor for everything, it's the only way
...K I S S....
sander attachment for shop vac helps too
The low dust mud is good for coating, but shit for sanding. So often the drywall gets burned before the edge is good for paint.
Unless there's a reason to get the low dust mud other stuff is better.
I don't like it personally. I typically use 45min, 20 min, and tape mud. A few places I have done require a very smooth even finish and that's pretty hard to get with the low dust mud for me. Plus, hot mud works so fast I don't have to spend a week at a house getting the job done right. Houston had so many drywall jobs from the hurricane last year that you could work nonstop just on drywalling. There are still people that need drywalling done down here from that storm.
Yeah, its easier to sand, work fast, you can modify its consistency to what you need, you can add additives when desired
...pro tip....
All you have to know is if you can smell poop in a public bathroom that mask isn't stopping shit ;)
...howls...
...I see what you did there....
Um….yea ….maskers are exactly the type that would have never sanded dry wall.
Or done demo-work
...absolute truth....
...after all "work" is a four letter word...
...and I was told to avoid for letter words....
...howls...
Valid observation on your behalf....
So true. Being a modelfag, I use a 3M painter's mask with the cartridges on the side when I am airbrushing plastic models, or sanding resin. I can't even smell a fart with that mask, but I know even that is useless against viruses.
...you obviously have never experienced a dog fart...
...howls....
🤣
In order to keep a virus out, you must be in a hazmat suit with supplied air.
Absolutely....
I have said this since day one of this scam, go sand DW for 5 min you'll find out how useless they are. glad to see it.
...working men recognize bovine excrement when they hear it....
BRILLIANT OBSERVATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...wags tail....
I have great masks... in my furniture refinishing box. I have never worn one in public. Not once. I have been asked to leave 5 stores in 2 years. 2 of them I go to maskless now no problem. 3 of them I will never go back to ever, and I told them so. I do still have to take my Mom to PT at the hospital, and for that I wear a thin peice of old threadbare t-shirt cut like a bandana- minimal compliance that clearly looks like I don't give a fuck. (However I fully understand everyone's city is different. I'm in Duck Dynasty land.)
...hold the line Patriot....
Try a wet sponge instead of sanding. Works much better.
...pro tip #3....
That's for Damn sure! Read the bucket. Smooth with wet sponge... Years I've sanded......
I wouldn't dare sand drywall mud with a wet sponge. The entire purpose is to get the mud to dry / cure. Using a wet sponge just makes the mud wet again, and you run a high risk of that wet sponge pulling the mud away, making for more touch ups.
I'm just saying read the bucket.
...pro tip #2....
Yet Libtardian women in supermarkets LOVE them! I lol each time I see them 😂
...the world is full of stupid people....
You’re speaking my language Ash
...working men understand....
I’m starting to think you’re no dog 😉
...howls...
...that is why I am on here late at night, after my people go to bed....
