60 angle

[marsaday]

I am altering our hall wall due to attic conversion and i have created a new wall. The angle where this new wall meets the older one is not a 45 degrees.

Is there an angle bead i can buy to make this nice and neat ?

as far as im aware there isnt a 60o angle bead.
what are you needing it for? skimming?
if so you can get a thin coat stop bead and put that down the angle so you have an edge to work against for both walls. hope this helps

yes it is for skimming. Ok so i need 2 of these beads and they will butt up to each other i suppose.

here is a pic of the wall.

no, you will just need the one bead. its 2/3mm stop bead

nail the stop bead 2 mm out past the angle so you have an edge to work to for each side. once you skim both sides it will look like an angle bead

i see. Thanks for that.

As far as I'm aware, you won’t get anything other than a 90 degree angle bead. For shallow angles you can splay the bead out slightly but for more obtuse angles, just use a single thin coat stop bead as stated; I use a staple gun & grab adhesive to fix beads.

You can use one on the internal corner as well.

Also put some scrim tape over the angle and under the bead...sometimes if your careful you can run a stanley knife down the inside angle of a plastic skim bead and gently "tease" it to the angle you want, if you canstop the blade going right thru, You could use a plastic standard angle bead(2" exterior one and build it in with bonding then skim over it...

problem with a stop is if you catch the edge it will crack the plaster. use a plastic skim bead and put more skim on. or you could round it off...?

What i would do is free hand and round it off. But i would make it look pukka. If i could get away with not using a stop i would.
