Fix Drywall without TAPE

Summary by Krater

Leah Bolden from See Jane Drill reviews and tests Tape in Mud, a drywall joint compound additive created by Mike Liagle. She demonstrates mixing it with setting-type joint compound, applying two coats to a drywall repair area, and sanding the result, concluding that it requires only two coats and avoids paper tape blistering, though it has a learning curve in consistency and produces sensitivity during mixing and sanding.
