Repair and Paint Closet Walls

What happens here

Inspect the walls for holes, dents, or rough spots left by the removed shelving. Apply spackle or drywall compound to fill these imperfections. Use a putty knife or trowel to smooth the patches, ensuring they are flush with the wall surface. Allow the compound to dry completely, then sand lightly until smooth. Clean any dust, then apply a fresh coat of paint to all interior walls of the closet for a clean, unified look.

Goal: After demolition, prepare the closet walls by patching any holes or imperfections left by the old shelving. Once dry, paint the entire closet interior to provide a fresh and clean background for the new system.
