How do you repair dings in drywall that has been textured?

@TurfCare11 Great question......You have to get creative...try to reproduce the effect of the texture with a combination of the way you apply the spackle or mud & the way you sand it out or blend it to the existing finish....every situation is unique, but if you are reasonably close, painting the entire wall & perhaps using a faux finish will help blend the repair

Does that pink spackle turn white when dry? I haven't used it before. Thank you for another informative video.

@squidboy0769 Thanks for asking.....Yes the spackle turns white when fully dry and is then ready for sanding.....great for production work, & DIY projects because sanding wet spackle can ruin your project & possibly your day !

Great tips again. I was wondering about the pink spackle. I assume spackle is another name for plaster and I did read the earlier comment about the pink color, super idea!! What is MDF trim?
