legacy 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2011 Hi all, I recently made the major mistake of drilling into my ceiling at the wrong place Now, there is a gaping hole there and I have absolutely no idea how to recover from the faux pas. One of the solution that I have is... $9.90 epoxy sold at Shell. Seems to be easy enough. Simlpy mix, and patch... Then paint over the patched hole. Any better suggestions?

The mixture should be like 1 part of cement, 2 parts of water and 3 parts of sand.If the hold is only a small one, then you may want to buy those ready made patty to cover it. It cost only $2 plus per container.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
