metal stud walls

[femaleplasterer]

need to know how you fix angle beads to a metal stud wall,

i think you use 1.219mm diameter galvanized wire but im not too sure will someone get back to me asap!!!

don't they have paper tape on them? you skim to the corner, bed the tape and bead into it and skim over it..

or drywall screw it to the stud that must be underneath if you're using they type with the expanded metal lath on them..

If the plasterboard is up, then glue it to that (nonails type adhesive), using a few staples to hold it in place until the glue sets. The skim coat will hold it all firm in due course.
