What happens here

After the drywall compound has fully dried, sand the patched area using a hand sander with 120-grit sandpaper until it is perfectly smooth and flush. Clean off any sanding dust. Finally, apply spray-on texture to the repaired section. Shake the texture can for one minute, hold it 24 to 36 inches away, and apply in a circular motion, ensuring the new texture overlaps and blends with the existing wall texture. Allow the texture to dry.

Goal: Smooth the patched area and apply texture for a seamless finish.
