Default Tips For Taping P/Board

I tape/joined the plasterboard in my kitchen years ago pretty successfully and
by that I mean the joins can't be seen ... and now and ding the boards on
ceiling and walls in my bathroom ....I did buy some powder from B+Q but aprt
from it being expensive for the amount you got I cab't say i like it so I went
and got what i used in the kitchen.Gyproc ready mixed in a huuuuuge tub. At
least i know it's the correct consistency .
What's the lowdown on doing this with the minumum of sanding coz that part is
messy....Any tips .Should I be looking to do no more than two applications .I am
using the sticky fibreglass tape . I'm proposing to use a narrow blade to apply
the first lot down the misddle of the join,then apply another lot when the first
lot is set then sand .Is that right or is there a better way of doing it ?.
any help appreciated
thx



Stuart .
