Please bear with my newbie curiosity.
On metal backed paper inside and outside drywall corners (not plain paper, not rolled, but rigid 10 ft lengths, such as No-coat) I'd like to use the 3M adhesive instead of drywall mud. Then just float the top. Just wondering if anyone else had done this with success. It seems they require adhesive with the plastic bullnose, etc such as Amico.
I posted on another forum and one person stated it might not be a good idea. Just trying to get more feedback.

I would use mud on the metal backed. If adhesive was used, there wouldn't be anything to support the inside of it.

Those paper faced beads are to be use with mud only no glue.
