ClarkDietrich HEAD-PATCH (100 count) 5" diameter (2-1/4" hole size) (bucket of 100)

Product Description

The ClarkDietrich Head-Patch is precisely cut in the factory to fit standard sprinkler head safety caps and PVC pipes, enabling an efficient repair process. This patch will not sag on large ceiling mis-cuts, and the durable materials used to make the patch resist fuzzing up during sanding. Installation: 1- Begin by lightly sanding the area to be repaired. 2- Apply drywall compound 1/8”-1/4" thick directly to back of patch. 3- Center the patch over the repair and wipe it down flat to the wall using a joint knife. 4- Immediately skim-coat the patch and allow it to dry. 5- Apply a second coat, let it dry, and then sand it. 6- The compound that remains on backside of Head-Patch enhances its rigidity in the damaged area. 7- For repairs over painted surfaces, we recommend using Strait-Flex Super-Bond mixed with all-purpose joint compound to improve bondability.
