DIY Tub / Shower Insert Drywall Finish w/ No Specialty Tools or Trim. Head to https://squarespace.com/modernbuilds​ to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code MODERNBUILDS The "old school" or "classic" way of drywalling a bathtub and shower just takes Joint compound, tape, and a drywall knife... No specialty tear away trim or tools. I had a hard time finding Trim-tex tear away trim online for a decent price, so I decided to make this tutorial showing how to get a clean, modern finish around a tub or shower insert with drywall supplies you can easily pick up at Lowe's or Home Depot. I went for a level 5 skim coat finish, which I'll be matching in the rest of the bathroom renovation, but if you''re spraying texture you can stop one coat sooner than I did. If you're a pro and have any tips please leave them below, let's make the comments a good learning resource for people taking this project on. Thanks for watching!

Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.
