Quarter-inch gypsum panel — the thinnest standard drywall thickness — with a noncombustible gypsum core wrapped in paper facing. Unlike 1/2 in. and 5/8 in. board, it is not intended as a primary single-layer wall or ceiling surface; it is a skin board used to resurface, laminate over, and bend.

The reduced core thickness makes the panel far more flexible than heavier board, so it can be bent to a radius over curved framing or arched openings, typically in two laminated layers to build back thickness and stiffness. It is also the usual choice for covering damaged, textured, or out-of-date plaster and drywall without tearing out the existing surface.

Panels take joint compound, tape, and paper or metal corner bead the same way any gypsum board does, and finish out for paint or wallcovering. Edges are tapered for flat, concealed joints.

Key Features

• Gypsum core faced with paper on both sides
• Thinnest standard drywall thickness, used as a skin or laminating board rather than a primary layer
• Flexible enough to bend around curved framing and arches, usually applied in two layers
• Tapered long edges for taped joints that finish flush
• Cuts with a utility knife and straightedge — score, snap, and cut the back paper
• Accepts standard joint compound, tape, corner bead, texture, and paint
• Fastens with drywall screws, nails, or panel adhesive over an existing substrate

Applications

• Resurfacing existing drywall or plaster walls and ceilings without demolition
• Double-layer lamination over curved framing for radius walls and arched openings
• Covering textured or damaged surfaces to bring them back to a flat, paintable plane
• Building up a second layer over existing board in renovation work
• Filling in and leveling wall surfaces where added thickness must stay minimal
