I do have a question, what if the studs are too far apart for the gap or if
there is only one beam attainable where the hole is? Is there any way to
just do it the same way without having to nail the new piece on every end?
Or is that a no no? A reply would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, however you should frame in a stud between the opening. The spacing
between studs should be no greater than 16 inches on center.

@MrVeeBlog If its a stucco finish maybe I can help. First off, make sure
that your repair is feathered into the wall. That means making sure that
your repair is as flat as possible, without completely removing your repair
by means of sanding. You’ll probably need to sand the perimeter surrounding
the repair with an electric hand sander (remove several inches around the
entire patch). Next, apply a skim-coat of drywall topping to the smooth
surface.

@jjlwis No, I cut the paper side and I installed the paper side outwards.
It may seem that I did the opposite, but that is only because the new piece
of drywall was not painted and had a darker appearance.

Any tips on repairing a hole in a wall with years of paint built up? There
is nearly 1/16 inch of paint built up and I am having a tough time getting
the drywall flush. Do I need to shim the drywall to match the level of the
paint? Or could I just mud the whole area, sand and re-paint?

how much time should you wait in between coats before you sand it down?

I think this should have showed putting in the screws and at least some of
the sanding process but good video overall.

@anutypenterntainment – If you are getting bubbles it is most likely you
don’t have enough joint compound behind the tape, or your squeezing it out
as you fasten the tape on the wall.

You should wait until the joint compound is totally white, which should
take about 24 hours, depending upon temperature, humidity, and how thick
you applied the joint compound.

You can also by pre-cut 16″ by 16″ repair drywall squares at select Ace
Hardwares, TrueValues, OSH’s and Home Depots. There is also a print demo on
there site at cadrywall.
