Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
What you need to know about drywall finishing is focus on feathering and don't sweat the ridges. As mark said, they scrape right off with the drywall knife or disappear instantly when sanding. I always sand. Just takes a few strokes and assures the best texture. For skim coat it's a good idea to mix a little water into the pre-mix for the smoothest coat and better feathered edges. I'll have pictures of plaster walls I restored coming up soon. Walls totally skim coated after repairing cracks and loose plaster.
Actually, I do have the before and during pictures now. There was '70s paneling before, then wallpaper to remove
