Esau Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 quote: Originally posted by jared: THERE IS NOW A HOLE IN MY WALL TO accompany that scream,,, anyone know how to fix a foot and fist sized hole in dry wall Drywall is simply a sandwich of paper and gypsum. The gypsum is a crumbly, chalk-like substance. As you apply spackle to the hole, it simply falls out along with the loose drywall. To properly repair larger holes, you will need to visit your local home improvement store. Your shopping list should include a small bucket of topping compound, a sheet of fine-grit sandpaper, an eight-inch drywall taping knife, and a drywall patch large enough to cover the hole. A drywall patch is a mesh, made of either metal or plastic, with and adhesive backing that is applied directly to the wall covering the hole. With the patch in place, the next step is to stir the topping compound into a mayonnaise-like consistency. This eliminates air and provides for a smoother finish. Armed with your new taping knife, apply compound to the patch and in an area about a foot all around the hole. Be sure to completely embed the patch and make the edges thinner than the middle. This takes a bit of practice. The idea is to take the entire height of the patch and distribute it over a greater area making it much less noticeable. Keep the layer thin to reduce sanding. Clean all of your tools in warm water when you are finished. With your first layer dried, sand the entire area smooth. You probably will not be happy with the results of the first coat. This is normal. Repeat the procedure again, with an eye toward "feathering" the edges for a seamless look. Again, clean your tools and sand when dried. You may need to apply three or four layers to get the desire effect. And don't forget a primer must be used on the raw patch before painting. Got it? If not here's one with pictures.(just follow the steps,and remember your hole may be bigger so allow for that.) http://www.prest-on.com/how.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 It's not too hard to fix holes in walls, I've done it after putting a mountain bike through a wall in 3 places - don't ask! Hey.....but if you are the type of guy that puts hole's in walls to release frustration and anger, then you're never going to find your heady wife. Try some deep breathing exercises darlin!
