Description:

The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows:


1. A formed corner piece comprising a corner bead extending integrally into two flanges; a mesh material bonded to and covering the outer surface of at least one of said flanges and extending substantially beyond the edge thereof.


2. A formed corner piece comprising a corner bead extending integrally into two flanges; a fibre glass mesh covering the outer surface of said flanges, said fibre glass mesh bonded thereto with adhesive, said mesh extending substantially beyond the edge of the flanges.


3. The method of applying a corner piece to a corner in dry wall construction, said corner piece comprising a corner bead extending integrally into two flanges; a mesh material bonded to and covering the outer surface of at least one of said flanges, and extending substantially beyond the edge thereof, the step of placing the corner piece tightly over the corner to be protected, pressing adhering material through and over the mesh onto the flange and upper surface, said adhering material integrally joining the mesh to the surfaces being covered, said mesh further forming a base for maintaining the covering adhering material in fixed and unbroken relationship to the flange.

4. A method of applying a corner piece to a corner in dry wall construction, said corner piece comprising a corner bead extending integrally into two flanges; a mesh material bonded to and covering the outer surface of at least one of said flanges and extending substantially beyond the edge thereof; the step of placing the corner piece tightly over the corner to be protected, stapling the mesh to the wall board using a stapling hammer, pressing adhering material through and over the mesh into the flange and upper surface, said adhering material integrally joining the mesh to the surface being covered, said mesh further forming a base for maintaining the covering adhering material in fixed and unbroken relationship to the flange.

5. A formed casing trim comprising a corner bead extending integrally into two flanges; a mesh material bonded to and covering the outer surface of one of said flanges and extending substantially beyond the edge of the flange, the second flange having a slightly crimped edge.


6. The method of applying a casing trim, comprising a mesh material bonded to and covering the outer surface of one of said flanges and extending substantially beyond the edge of the flange, the second flange having a slightly crimped edge, to a casing in dry wall construction, the step of placing the casing trim tightly over the casing to be protected with the crimped edge of the trim resting in a groove, pressing adhering material through and over the mesh onto the flange and undersurface, said adhering material integrally joining the mesh to the surfaces being covered, said mesh further forming a basis for maintaining the covering adhering material in fixed and unbroken relationship with said mesh.


7. A method of applying a casing trim, comprising a mesh material bonded to and covering the outer surface of one of said flanges and extending substantially beyond the edge of the flange, the second flange having a slightly crimped edge, to a casing in dry wall construction, the step of placing the casing trim tightly over the casing to be protected with the crimped edge of the trim resting in a groove, stapling the mesh to the dry wall using a stapling hammer, pressing adhering material through and over the mesh into the flange and undersurface, said adhering material integrally joining the mesh to the surfaces being covered, said mesh further forming a basis for maintaining the covering adhering material in fixed and unbroken relationship with said mesh.
