Warning: that $40 box of corner bead cost me a whole Saturday in 2011
Back around 2011 I had to pick between the cheap paper-faced corner bead and the metal stuff for a big basement job in Fort Wayne. I went cheap to save about $220 on the bid, and I paid for it. Two corners cracked within a week of the primer going on, so I spent a full Saturday cutting them out and redoing them with metal bead, plus the customer watching me the whole time. That was the last time I let a low bid pick my materials over my gut. Any of you still running paper bead on high traffic corners, or did you all switch over years ago?
