Best technique for attaching corner bead

A guy that I work with &#; who is very talented &#; but very stubborn &#; has a particular way of installing corner bead that seems to work but is so unconvential that I am sceptical it can last. 

If you are looking for more details, kindly visit our website.

Here it is:  Mud the corner, embed the corner bead in the mud (strong pressure) &#; adjust to the best position and  coat again&#;.let dry.  So there is no mechanical faster, but when it is dry it seems very nicely stuck in there.  Compared with attaching with mechanical fasteners, one big advantage seems to be the mud behind the corner adds strength and the edge stays perfectly stuck.  No aggravating lift on loose parts between fasteners. 

Anyone ever try this?  I like to attach with contact cement (latex based so no smell)&#;but admitedly, this takes longer.

#1A Expanded Corner Bead | ClarkDietrich Building Systems

The wide, expanded-wing flanges are flexible and can compensate for most irregular surfaces providing even grounds and straight corners. The expanded steel near the nose of the corner bead provides multiple plastering and stucco keys allowing for reinforcement and strength where it is needed the most. In addition to reinforcing corners, the #1A Corner Bead can also be used as a return accessory around any recessed opening or as a corner for spray-applied fireproofing when the column of bead is boxed in.

Galvanized steel products should not be used with magnesium oxychloride cement stucco or Portland cement stucco containing calcium chloride additives. The selection of the appropriate type of material for accessories shall be determined by the surrounding climatic and environmental conditions such as salt air, industrial pollution, and high humidity. The #1A Corner Bead is available in Zinc for approved corrosion resistance.
