  Blue Line USA Tips and Tricks

Get rid of dry tape!

Taping with the Blue Line USA Automatic Taper Prevent Dry Patches under the Tape.

Whenever you are feeding tape with the AT or B2 control tube, it is imperative that the tape wheels are also driven forward.

This ensures that compound is being forced up the tube and onto the tape at the same time. If this is not done, the paper tape will drag some of the compound out of the head, which will result in a dry spot a short distance after you start taping again.

So when you stop to cut the tape: return the control tube to the neutral position; keep the tape wheels on the wall and roll them forward to keep the joint compound flowing, and simultaneously move the control tube forward to feed out the new tab of tape. This ensures that pressure is maintained on the compound and the tape will be fully mudded.

Taping with the Blue Line USA Automatic Taper The other thing to watch out for is that the tape wheels remain in contact with the wall and don't skid. If the tape wheels aren't turning, the compound is not being pumped out at the correct rate, and you may get dry patches of tape.
