What happens here

Once the spray texture has dried, take the medium sanding sponge and lightly sand down any areas where the texture might be too heavy or uneven. The objective is to make the textured patch blend seamlessly and flat with the existing wall texture. After refining the texture, use the interior/exterior spray primer (Insulct Seal) to spot prime the entire textured patch. This step is crucial for preparing the area for painting, ensuring better paint adhesion and preventing any color differences or flashing from the new spackle/texture through the topcoat.

Goal: Smooth texture and prime the patched area

What they say

Hide

texture is dried, we've got a couple holes. We've spat it right here. We're just going to lightly sand the texture down. Make sure it's flat. Then we take our spray primer and we're going to take and spot prime that texture prior to painting.
