I hate to a Harbinger of bad news but the Fibatape you used has a tendency to come loose and show through the mud you should consider putting 2 more coats of primer on the joints as it will soak in cure and make the mud harder

I have used this kind of tape for years. As long as it is new and the glue hasn't dried up, I have had no problems with it. Thanks for caring though.

Thanks everyone for your wonderful comments and support. Alli and I where very pleased to share this project with you. After the next renovation project (bathroom) it is time for the fishroom!!!! We promise that we will start another thread and hope you will all follow our progress through the construction again.

We decided to paint the wall a light grey color, it shows up as white in the pictures. We might decide to change the color in the future, we will update the thread if and when we do so.

We will start by putting up the before picture first and then follow with the final pictures.

Heheh I just noticed from the pictures that I did not put the plug plates back on before the pictures. Please forgive me!

Thats the whole project, it only took 13 days. Hope you enjoyed following along.

Take care; Al and Alli
