DRYWALL REPAIR MADE EASY!!
Whether you call it "Patching a hole" or "Fixing Drywall" any Do-It-Yourself weekend handyman can make a Professional Drywall Repair in minutes without a big expense. Drywall Repair has never been easier!
Needed tools include a pencil, 4-inch putty knife, utility knife, sandpaper, small bucket of drywall compound (Don not use "PASTE") and either a 3-7/8" diameter or a 6-7/8" diameter Drywall Repair Plug. Most of these tools already hang over the garage work bench, so the expense is very minimal, usually just the price of the Drywall Repair plug and the compound (mud).
The Drywall Repair Plug is the only product on the market that can claim to "Return the Structural Integrity" back to the damaged area. For example, if the damaged area was where the end of a towel holder was screwed into, when the repair was completed, it could be returned to its original location as if the area was never damaged and hold up to daily use again. Unlike other drywall repair products, the Drywall Repair plug is the only "PERMANENT" repair!
HOW TO USE
First: unwrap the drywall Repair Plug from its packaging. The foam packaging is the template you will need to determine the size and the location of the hole you want to cut out. Place the template over the damaged area a trace the circle around the damaged drywall.
NOTE: Make sure there are no electrical wires, cable wires, plumbing pipes etc. before you begin cutting.
Second: with a utility knife or a drywall saw, cut out the circle you just drew. Remove all the loose drywall pieces and smooth out the sides from rough cut drywall paper.
Third: BEFORE apply compound to the Drywall Repair Plug, place the Drywall Repair Plug into the hole you just cut to make sure it fits properly. Trim the sides of the drywall hole as needed.
Fourth: Remove the Drywall Repair Plug and apply a generous amount of compound completely around the edge of the drywall piece of the Drywall Repair Plug, where the paper meets the plug.
Fifth: Insert the Drywall Repair Plug into the hole again and from the center of the plug, begin squeezing out the excess compound with the putty knife to the outer edges of the paper. Once the paper rests flat on the surface, immediately apply another coat over the top of the entire Drywall Repair Plug. Smooth the best you can, ignoring any slight wrinkles in the paper. Let dry overnight.
NOTE: The paper may wrinkle slightly, but the Drywall Repair Plug owns the patent in this specially made paper that actually adheres to a painted surface and when it dries the repair will be smooth.
Sixth: Sand the drywall repair smooth. Add texture if desired and paint.
Inserting the Drywall Repair Plug should take less than 10 minutes for the first-time user. Once the installer has completely installed their first Drywall Repair Plug, most future Drywall Repair Plugs are installed in 5-6 minutes.
