Frequently Asked Questions
What are the advantages of drywall nails?
- These nails work well under pressure, making them suitable for challenging jobs requiring more weight.
- They are more affordable than screws.
- Drywall nails are much less likely to break than screws while experiencing shear force.
- They are quicker to install than screws.
How to fix nail pops in drywall?
- Wear safety glasses and use a hammer to drive the protruding nail back into the wall.
- Secure the drywall to wooden studs with two drywall screws. Position one screw directly above the nail and one screw directly below the nail.
- Use a drywall taping knife to apply a light layer of joint compound over the holes.
- Permit the joint compound to dry for 2 to 4 hours. Turn On a fan to speed up the drying process.
- Add a second coat of joint compound. If the patch is not blending well with the surrounding wall, use a broad feathering knife to draw a wide & thin coat farther out on the wall.
- After inspecting the area and checking for the joint compound shrinkage (while drying), apply a third coat. Sand the area lightly using fine-grit sandpaper. Paint the surface after applying primer to the repair area.
