• Ensure the area to be repaired is clean, dry, and free of dust or loose debris. For larger holes, you may need to apply a drywall patch or mesh tape first. — Prepare the Surface
• Load a small amount of joint compound or spackle onto the 6-inch flexible blade. Hold the knife at a slight angle to the surface and spread the compound evenly over the hole or crack, feathering the edges. — Apply Compound
• Use the flexible blade to smooth the compound, removing excess and creating a flush surface. For best results, apply thin, even coats and allow each to dry completely before sanding and applying subsequent coats if needed. — Smooth and Finish
• Wipe the blade clean with a damp cloth immediately after use to prevent compound from drying on the steel. Store the knife in a dry place to maintain its rust-resistant properties. — Clean Up
