GOES ON DRY—The most popular type of dry wall finish used today is plaster board. If the
joints are well nailed, taped and cemented they can be made invisible. • Plaster board interiors can
provide an attractive surface when painted.

Dry Wall Finishes Make
Attractive Looking Interiors

Dry wall refers to interior finish-
es that are applied in the dry
state, such as gypsum board and
wood panelling. _ Unlike plaster
which is applied wet and thereby
creates a moisture problem, dry
wall finishes enable the builder to
proceed more rapidly with the in-
terior woodwork.

ter sandwiched between two lay-
ers of paper are becoming in-
creasingly popular. Wood_ panel-
ling,' vithia hhiS been employed for
centuries as an interior finish, has
seen a revival in acceptance, this
time as plywood. Plywood panels
can be' obtained in a variety of
finishes and textures. Fibreboard
also provides attractive finishes
suitedto particular needs. Hard-
pressed fibreboard panels have a
glossey, water - resistant surface
while Softer textured fibreboards
are ideal for soundproofing. '
Gypsum plaster board, if cor-
rectly nailed and 1 with all joints
taped and cemented, can be as
effective as plaster itself. Panels
can be obtained in various lengths
and thicknesses., Three-eighths of
an inch has been considered satis-
factory, but lately builders have
been turning more and more to
half-inch gypsum board because of
its extra rigidity. The panels can
be installed either vertically or
horizontally.
Sometimes protruding nail heads
become a problem with the use of
gypsum board cladding. As the
framing lumber dries out and the
house continues to settle, nails
have a tendency to break loose
from the'wood backing. Nail heads
which "pop" out beyond the wall
surface can be especially annoy-
ing once all the painting and in-
terior decorating is done. One way
to prevent this happening is to use
two nails, closely spaced, where
a single nail would normally do.
If ringed nails are used there is
less chance of their becoming
loose.
Taping the joints is now large-
ly done by machine, not only be-
cause it is faster but also because
it produces a smooth finish not al-
ways possible otherwise. Gypsum
board manufacturers insist that
only tape designed especially for
this purpose be used. In cement-
ing the taped joints the manufac-
turer's instructions should be care.
fully observed; plaster is not a
substitute for tappin cement. The
best quality materials and skilled
workmanship are required if the
joints are to be durable and in-
conspicuous.
Cementing the joints should be
done in four stages. At each suc-
cessive application the cemented
strip is widened until a perfectly
smooth surface is obtained. In
tlaft trade this is known as "feath-
ering" the joint.

for interior cladding, usually in the
form of plywood panels. Tongue
and groove lumber and knotty pine
boards can be used with good re-
sults if a rustic effect is desired.
Hardboard, produced by combin-
ing wood fibres and'resins or oth-
er binders under high pressure, is
also extensively employed.
Pressed wood panels of softer
texture are used where sound-
proofing is important. Perforated
sound -absorbing tiles used on ceil-
ings in restaurants, public waiting
rooms and 'hospitals, are becoming
increasingly popular in the home.
Soft -textured pressed -wood panel-
ling can be .given a durable sur-
face by spraying it with a special
coating which leaves a hard finish
when it dries. Other newer clad-
ding. materials include tiles coated
with vinyl or other heavy duty
plastic materials. If consideration
is being given to one -of the newer
types of wall cladding, it should
be remembered that some of these
materials are—ti6t recommended
for use In kitchens, bathrooms,
laundry rooms or any place where
the air is usually damp.
