THE WORK AND THE FINISH
What does a Level 5 drywall finish add?
Level 5 adds a thin skim coat across the entire gypsum-panel surface after Level 4 joint and fastener treatment. That full-surface coat reduces differences between paper and finished joints before the specified primer and paint.
Do my walls need Level 5 finishing?
Strong light across the wall, deep colors and non-flat paint can make surface differences easier to see. Review the planned lighting and decoration, and compare a sample before settling on the finish. Existing-wall smoothing needs its own substrate review.
