1. Cut the metal strip according to the dimensions of the walls. It is better to prepare all the elements in advance, and not cut them as necessary.
2. Bend the tape along in half to get a flat angle.
3. Knead the solution. It should not be too thick or very fluid.
4. Apply the mixture to the angle between the ceiling and the wall. The solution should go 2 cm to the wall and 2 cm to the ceiling. The solution layer should be thick enough.
5. Press the corner into the corner between the ceiling and the wall, and spread the excess solution over the ceiling.

You may have problems with leveling the plaster in the corner between the two sides of the ceiling and the wall. In this place it is better to work with a filler while it is quite fresh, and correct minor defects when the applied layer thickens a little.
