Paperless drywall uses a sheet of fiberglass on each side to protect the gypsum core instead of using green, white or blue paper. Although the outer materials used in the construction of paperless drywall are different, the installation process is relatively similar to the installation of standard drywall. However, due to the slightly rougher texture of the fiberglass, the finishing process is somewhat different. Although the process is not much more difficult, it does take more time and more plaster to complete the drywall finish.
