Muriel on Mar 16, 2014I've done nail holes with wood filler, but this is bigger than a dime with nothing behind it. Would have to find a way to have something hold it in the hole. With a matching brown could 'paint' black lines to match. ??Helpful Reply

Brenda Cole on Jan 27, 2016I thought with larger holes like that, you were supposed to use a wire mesh, stiff, tie a string to it so you cna hold it tight to the back of the wallboard. Fill will spackle, holding that string like a wick, let dry cut string sand finish?Helpful Reply

Diana Deiley on Feb 09, 2016Just love Brenda's suggestion. I would try a small piece of self adhesive dry wall mesh tape. Let dry, spackle, sand, paint. Best of luck.Helpful Reply
