Occasionally, despite our best efforts, bad luck just gets in the way. Luckily repairing our cornice is easy, so even if there is a nasty gouge from a wayward blade it won’t ruin your project.
All you need is some lightweight pre-mixed filler, a spatula and some fine sanding paper.
The first step is to clear out the damaged area of any loose material.
Use the spatula to fill the damaged area with lightweight filler
Wait until dry, and then lightly sand the filler to eliminate any rough edges
Wipe away dust, and paint as per normal with a water based paint.
Wait for the first coat to dry and add another coat.
All done!
