Expose Nail Pop

What happens here

Begin by identifying the 'nail pop' on the ceiling, which typically appears as a small bubble or raised area. Using a 5-in-1 tool or a stiff putty knife, carefully scrape away the existing drywall mud, tape, and texture around the nail pop. This action will expose the loose nail and the surrounding damaged area, preparing it for the next repair steps.

Goal: Locate and expose the loose nail causing the nail pop
