Patching Small Drywall Holes

What happens here

Begin by addressing any small holes or imperfections in the drywall using spackle (also known as patching compound or joint compound). Apply the spackle with a spackle knife, filling the indentation completely. Immediately after application, use your hand or the knife to gently wipe off any excess spackle from the surrounding wall. This technique is crucial to avoid creating a raised patch that eliminates the existing wall texture, ensuring a seamless blend with the rest of the surface. The goal is to fill only the hole without altering the original surface.

Goal: Fill small holes and imperfections in the drywall using spackle, carefully wiping excess to maintain the surrounding wall's texture.
