I know it was made a while ago, but this was such a helpful video.

Thanks for the vid. Can the method for under 25mm holes be used for ceilings? Is the tape enough to avoid a sag?

So I dispose of the rubbish into the wall cavity? No wonder when I go in my roof space there are more offcuts of things than insulation. Why's the bottom line on tradies invoices always 'Disposed of rubbish and cleaned area'? Should be just 'hid the rubbish'.

What is the name of the compound used?

Is that 1x rapid patch and 1x 50ml of water or 150ml of water?

Wait 20min before sanding, more like 24 hours, there's nothing rapid about it.

Fkn hell - I am so sick of patching drywall.
Yes yes... I know it's easy to repair.. and it's fireproof.. and it's cheap.. and and and...
But the stuff is fragile.
