I have an LVL beam which I would like to skim-coat with drywall mud. My drywall guy is unsure whether that will be a durable solution and is recommending 1/4" drywall.
What's the general experience doing this, i.e. can an LVL beam be successfully skim-coated?
Forget the mud.
Sand, patch little bits with wood filler if needed, prime and paint.
