Hi all, how could I achieve a curved plastered corner? Thanks, id like to turn a sharp corner into a curved one during remodelling, such as those found in Victorian houses in hallways.

Hi I'm relatively new to multi-finish just wants some good tips on smoothing it out better. Also what is best way to sand / prep multi-finish for painting? Additional Info: Solid Victorian Wall. I would also love to know how to do corners and little gaps with multi-finish too. Thanks.
