How do I install it ? From what I read I need a hopper and roller tool. Can I get away whitout ?

Thanks,

Frank

i got away with it. Did mine about 2 months ago with no problems.
I first filled the corner bead about 50-75 percent full of joint compound, put a few trowels full on the wall ( to kinda prime it for the paper) and pressed the coner bead into place. Worked like a charm. Not to say this is the best way to do it.
I dont have the web site handy but if you do a google search for "paper corner bead" or something along those lines you'll find the manuf website for this product. It explains this method.

good luck
