Install vinyl drywall corners.

Drywall corner bead is made of either metal or vinyl and serves to protect the outside corners of walls. All you need to install it are taping knives and a spray bottle filled with water. Installed on the outside corners where two pieces of drywall meet corner beads create a smooth even seam and an attractive finish. It is often referred to simply as bead because of the thin straight line that is created with the corner of the material.

Whether made of metal or vinyl the material forms as a very small round bead that runs the entire length. Outside drywall corners have traditionally been protected with nail on metal corners but paper faced corner bead is simpler and resists cracks and chips better.
