Re: Some SBC questions
Leave it built up a bit in those corners. Think of running a bead of caulk in a corner and then running your finger down it to smooth and remove excess - it leaves a lightly built up curved bead (cove). You don't want to apply it and then scrape it all off trying to maintain a crisp 90 corner.
Cove molding is used in wall paneling installations, wood siding. In those apps it is primarily used to hide a "boogered" job of installing the corners. Makes sense to cove the SBC - added strength in the corners as well as aesthetics - crisps corners are not easy to achieve with most masonry products
