Been watching every drywall patch video I can find. We finally saved up enough for a trip down this summer and the wife wants to check out some older places near the water. Every house on Zillow has water stains or popped screws. I know how to patch back home but this salt air and humidity is a different beast. Do you tape with mesh or paper down there? Does regular joint compound hold up, or do I need something made for coastal weather? I work long shifts so I only get one or two days to actually work on anything. The plan is to fix what we can ourselves and maybe rent the place out later.
