Gypsum Crown Molding
Is anyone still using the crown molding made from gypsum any more ? Use to use it years ago (5-6) haven't had to use it for some time now. Thank God !!! Just curious.

Re: Gypsum Crown Molding
Have never tried it. Wondered about it. Must be a pain to use. Judging by your comment.

Re: Gypsum Crown Molding
we use it quite a bit on high end jobs in. all types of plaster moulding. carpenters and ornamental plasterers install and ornamental plasterers finish. it's a real pain in the but to finish especially with the highly ornamented stuff. it's a money maker when you can get it.

Re: Gypsum Crown Molding
we still use it out here from time to time, i've helped someone put it up but never been responsible for finished product. seems like a real pain in the butt.
