I need to remove horizontal drywall tape that is loose from a wall so I can put new on and repaint the wall. Do I just use a knife and cut it off or soak it off or what? I'm totally clueless about walls, repairs, and painting.

  1. Just cut it off with razor knife 1/2 in past loose part, you will have to use a little pressure to cut Thu  mud,don't  worry about small damage, overfill damage area slightly and in-bed tape, you don't  have to overlap, 3 coats tight of mud and hardly any sanding. Hope this helps, if you have further ? contact me via yahoo. Jerry 30 years contractor.
