Preparing the Surface<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"color: #757575; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400;\">We started by lightly sanding the damaged area to remove debris and loose paint.

Covering with Compound<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"color: #757575; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400;\">Using a wide scraper, we applied a thin, even layer of patching compound over the entire surface of the mesh patch.<br \/>We feathered the edges to blend it seamlessly with the surrounding wall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #757575; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400;\">After allowing it to dry completely, the area was lightly sanded for a smooth finish.
