        "text": "The essential materials include drywall joint tape (paper or fiberglass mesh), joint compound (also known as mud), and appropriate tools. Joint compound comes in different types, such as setting-type (quick-drying) and drying-type (all-purpose, lightweight). Tools required typically include taping knives of various widths, a mud pan, a sanding pole or hand sander with sandpaper, and a utility knife. Depending on the project, corner tools, hawk and trowel, and dust masks are also necessary.",
