For repairing cracks we've all but quit taping. So, this make work with
edge seams but don't hold me to it.
V-groove the joints with a utility knife 1/4 to 3/8 inch deep. Then
fill the joint with Liquid Nails and smooth it down level with the surface
using a putty knife. After it's hardened remove any surface bits and pieces
of the Liquid Nails then go over the joint with a pigmented shellac (Kilz or
Zinsser) to insure there is no bleed-through. When that's dried float the
joint as wide as practical with regular drywall mud. Texture to match.
