Is this used to apply the tape directly to the joint? How does it work on ceilings?

Yes, you put mud in the feed spot then pull the tape through then apply straight to the joint. Ceilings it works just the same!

No, you pull the tape thru the machine and apply the mudded tape to the joint by hand, with the mud going into the joint, of course. After pulling enough tape as I could handle, I'd cut it off with scissors to maintain a smooth joint. I wish I'd had this TapeBuddy when I first started my house.

yes- it applies joint compound directly to the tape- place tape directly over the seam. Works well on ceilings after applying run knife over tape to seal to seam.

It works well I used it for taping the second floor of my home. it works best if you have someone to pull the length if tape from the tape buddy and hand it to you while standing on scaffolding to apply that's how I did it. The mud is applied to the tape using be tape buddy it's a great system use the thinnest setting though.

You might watch the youtube video on this, Robert. It doesn't apply the tape to the seam. You pull the tape out of the Tape Buddy and the mud is applied for you. Same concept for ceilings. Use the corner of your knife to cut the tape to a manageable length and apply it over the seam. Don't overwork it- Strike it off and move on to the next length of tape. Very easy to use- I'm extremely happy with mine. It's really a time saver.

I used liquid nails. It comes "pre-pasted", but the included adhesive is weak, and normal wallpaper paste is not suitable for keeping this stuck to a ceiling.

It slips under the edge of the siding and hooks against the siding. They work great. I have ever hung anything from the ceiling with them.

I think it works best for walls. Ceiling make it real messy. You will need to adjust the spray and viscosity to get the look you want. I did an entire garage and it looked good. I did the "knock down". Note sure I'd like it for the "orange peel" look as it does spit a bit. You will need to cover anything you do not want to get spray on. It is very messy... but some of that may just be me. I hope it works for you.

It will work on ceilings; make sure you position the intake tube toward the rear of the sprayer.

Ye you can apply directly on the tape, we have. This product is the greatest. It save us over $400 in not having a professional seal our RV

Is feels solid in the amount of time it takes to put down the sprayer and touch the foam. My bet is that it will work. Check their website to see videos. I think they have one about strategies for spraying a ceiling.

I'm sorry - I really don't know. We used it on conventional roof sheathing on a cathedral ceiling.

It is not adhesive. I guess you could try using Velcro to attach it to the ceiling. If you buy a regular vent deflector with magnets it would keep the air from blowing directly down on the person below.

Hi the spray foam will stick to the ceiling. Spray in thin coats and let it expand, then reapply more as desired. The yield will be much lower if applied at less than 70F. Sincerely, Mark - Battic Door Energy

I used it to paint a large shed and it made short work of it. I tried to roll it but had difficulty because of the sidings textured surface. After getting the sprayer the job was finished much faster and consumed much less paint.Ceilings may be difficult because of the position of the draw from the reservoir. Pointing the sprayer up to spray the eaves required frequent topping of the reservoir.

Yes the foam will stick to ceilings. However the foam must be applied at least 70F to achieve proper mix and yield. Regards, Mark - Battic Door Energy

I used Liquid Nails and it worked fine - all tiles are still on the ceiling!

It creates a horizontal level and a vertical plumb line. This probably wouldn't help as much as something that would project directly upward, since vertical line is limited angle. Great for against a wall but not on the ceiling and directly overhead. I'm not sure how you would generate alignment. It might be simpler to measure from the walls to get parallel.

This tape is great but I'm not in the flooring business. I use it to stick my business card to garage walls after I do garage door work. It will stick to anything clean or dirty and it sticks to the tools to cut it also. Probably would work good for what it is made for.

I agree with David A. Senechal. Your best bet is to use drywall tape, assuming your ceiling is of drywall construction.

I havent used it on plaster. I cut through crown molding in place on the ceiling, and it cut perfectly straight without disturbing surrounding area. Plaster is softer than wood so I think it shoukd work. However with plaster you'll always have dust. I think the dust will fall straight down in a concentrated area.
