I'm about 60% done installing OSB on the walls of my new shop then it hit me…..somewhere in a discussion on OSB I seem to recall a rep from one of the OSB manufacturers offering advice on installing and painting OSB. In that post I think I remember him advising to leave 1/8" space between panels. I know that is a consideration when installing decking for a roof and sheathing but how critical is it when installing on an interior wall that will be painted?
Have you installed OSB on your walls and if so did you leave a gap between panels? More importantly if you did not leave a gap have you experienced any issues? Do I need to get my palm router or dremmel out and make gaps??? UGH.
Thanks for your input.
