Default Finishing Drywall

I've been doing this for almost 15 years but it wasn't until a few years ago
that I help a pro. drywaller and now my tech. is fast and easy.

In a tight spot I can do a whole bathroom in one day.

1) I tape with the sticky fiberglass tape
2) Apply a quick coat of "Sheetrock 90"
3) (Wait 30-60 min) scrape high spots and ridges off with trowel
4) Apply second coat of "sheetrock 90" (Wait over night)
5) Sand or apply more sheetrock depending on finish
6) finish with drywall mud
7) Final Sand

Basically, how do you finish drywall? Tape, mud, sand, etc. How long to
wait between coats?
