What grit for the sanding block, fine, extra fine?

[DominickDiy]

@Lehmann108 You would go with a 60 grit for heavy lines and then a 100 for over all.

[MCDouga11]

this bloke is awesome... and saved me like 360 bucks... the materials for my hole cost around 40 bucks, was gonna cost me like 400 bucks to get someone to come fix it... you sir just saved me a shit ton of money. +1

[OntCanGuy]

[iluveyeshadows]

[Kshiloh55]

Great video!!

[TheMrSanchos]

Dominick, thanks for the video.. very educational videos - have watched a few and finding new techniques is always awesome. If I could leave star ratings it would def be 5/5 of well spent time watching the videos.

[super0chick]

Did you also speckle in the screws? Doesn't that make a little bump on the wall where the screws are?

[DominickDiy]

@super0chick One would think so, but not at all. The screws or nails are lower then the corner to the sheetrock it self. 

[yankeessm1]

Dominick - Great video! Thanks for the tips. I have a similar size hole. Probably 5 X 5 inches. Do I have to use the tape? Wht does that do? Aren't you filling the small gap with joint compound?

[thevenz]

Thanks a lot for this video. I'm the opposite of handy, but watching this and having you exolain in a nice easy fashion, I feel more confident in doing something like this.

You are pretty good at what you do.

[pokebreaker]

Great video. I have a large hole in my living room wall for years, that i've just covered with a painting. After watching your video, you explained and showed it to be simple enough, that I am now heading to Lowes to get some material and try it myself. Again, great video.

[RitterMethod]

great video thank you!

[zRepLaY]

So after u do the sanding, just paint right?

[Aweb2203]

@DominickDiy- so does the spackling you were using act as a primer as well?

[Aweb2203]

This is a great video! I was wondering... Is it necessary to apply primer to the repaired sheet rock before you paint?

[DominickDiy]

@Aweb2203 Yes you really should use a primer first. Otherwise the sheet rock will just soak up the paint. And you'll get a better job.

[cardo1111]

@Aweb2203 Excellent vid! my problem is I never use a big enough putty knife.

[23Belligerent]

Oh boy, I've got some work to do. About how long does the spackle take to dry? I figure I can move from spot to spot in the mean time but I'm just trying to get a general idea.

Thank you very much for uploading this video. Very well explained and easy to follow.

[DominickDiy]

@23Belligerent Not to long. Most of the time, over night. 

[DominickDiy]

@23Belligerent Thank you very much.

[fanaticbogey]

Preciate the help! What would I do without the internet? Oh yeah, I'd have to buy one of those old Bob Villa repair manuals that came in installments for 29.99 a pop. Pfft, this is much quicker!

[LOONZ83]

[paintballerIRONMEN96]

@DominickDiy well i learned how to fix sheet rock, AND not to kick holes in my walls while my parents are home :D

[MrShitniga]

great video, really helped me thru the job, altho my hole was abit bigger but i still used the same techniques and it looks great. thanks

[johnlyris]

Great tip. Thanks for the sanding tip.

I also thought that you would sand between coats.

Good Job...

[DominickDiy]

Yea not at all. Think about you're sanding away what you just put on, LOL Thank you..

[CTeric3742]

@johnlyris sanding between coats is for amateurs

[CanadianToolGuy416]

Great video. Yeah you can get "drywall sponges" for like 6 bucks CDN at Home Depot. They work pretty good for sanding drywall.

[DominickDiy]

Are they that much now. Wow I should sell my old ones, LOL I have a ton of them. LOL

[FriscoDuck415]

Thanks, Dominick.

Another very helpful vid. I had this problem come up at work before. Now I can do it myself instead of passing the buck.

[DominickDiy]

Yea keep the bucks in your pocket. Glad I was able to help.

[pukuall66]

What a great video, now i can fix that hole i made in new years eve...lol

[DominickDiy]

Great.. I had to make this one just for the video, LOL but true..
