What happens here
For minuscule holes, such as those left by small nails, a traditional putty knife might be overkill and can create unnecessary spread. Instead, take a small amount of spackle on your finger and simply dab it directly over the tiny hole. Gently rub the spackle into the hole, then wipe off any excess with your finger or a damp cloth, leaving a minimal amount of compound precisely where needed. This method is effective for achieving a very clean and quick patch on small imperfections.
Goal: For very small nail holes, dab spackle directly into the hole using a finger for quick and effective filling, then wipe off any excess.
