Trockenestriche

Trockenestriche, also known as drywall taping, is a construction technique used to finish interior walls and ceilings. The process involves applying a thin layer of joint compound to the surface of drywall sheets, followed by the application of a layer of tape. The tape is then covered with another layer of joint compound, which is smoothed and sanded to create a seamless, flat surface. This technique is commonly used in residential and commercial construction to create a smooth, even finish for walls and ceilings. Trockenestriche is an essential step in the drywall finishing process, as it helps to hide any imperfections in the drywall sheets and provides a smooth surface for painting or wallpaper. The term "Trockenestriche" is derived from the German language, where "Trocken" means dry and "Striche" refers to the lines or stripes created by the tape. The technique has been used for many years and remains a popular method for achieving a professional-looking finish in construction projects.
