BEFORE YOU START
This is a quick fix giving immediate results for wall holes in concrete plastering of a maximum depth of 5-6 mm. Failed attempts to hang pictures using nails or nail hooks do create such holes. This method is very simple and "minute made" giving satisfactory results especially on rough surfaces . It is not valid for a perfect finish on very smooth paints. |
