The Ryobi Plaster Repair Starter Kit is a new, innovative way to repair drywall easily without calling a professional or investing in an abundance of supplies. Get the job done in less than half the time of a traditional repair with Ryobi’s three-step process! Wall repair with the Ryobi Plaster Repair Starter Kit is completed in 3 Easy Steps: 1.) Cover the hole with the template, pressing adhesive firmly to the remaining drywall. 2.) Using your drill, drill the hole saw into the drywall, using the template as a guide. Drill until the hole saw is flush to the wall. The hole saw will remain in drywall as the plug. 3.) Fill over the hole saw, then sand and paint the area to complete the drywall repair.

    I just cut some cardboard slightly bigger than the hole, poke a hole in the middle, feed in string and make a large knot, glue the edge of the cardboard, fold it enough to push it through the hole, pull the string so the cardboard sticks to the back of the drywall, let the glue dry, fill the gap with plaster, sand and paint.

    • iShibby on 16/11/2019 - 21:27

      Would the cardboard deteriorate over time and affect the patch? Just wondering.

        It is just a backing for the wet plaster. Not needed once the plaster dries.

        Standard plaster board is just paper holding plaster in the middle. Cardboard will be stronger if anything.

    • Heybargain on 16/11/2019 - 21:41

      I like the idea. Wil try this next time!

      Near the end of the above video is how I have repaired gyprock holes before.
      I used gyprock as the backing and not cardboard.

      • klonky on 17/11/2019 - 08:16

        That looks pretty tidy

      fill the gap with plaster, sand and paint.

      Do you mix all three together first?

        How’s that edgy?

    hmmm, seems neater than those mesh patches since you can put it recessed into the wall rather than have to plaster and smooth out something that is by nature stuck on higher than the existing wall.

    How-to video.

    Used one a while back and threaded the drill bit attachment half way through the first hole. Because the drill bit is metal and the connection on the hole saw is plastic. I was slow and methodical too.

    Once the plastic hole saw is threaded it is useless. Great concept in theory. But I'd say it is the reason they are on clearance.

    Ended up being the biggest pain to finish it off now having a hole 3 times the size of the original. I had to use multigrips to screw the plate the rest of the way in.

    It was easily more difficult to plaster than the other methods I have tried

      Did you mean stripped the thread?

    • Bjay on 17/11/2019 - 19:54

      I agree. I should've read your comment before using it earlier. The hole saw couldn't really penetrate the drywall so it made it look worse than before having scratches. Ended up using mesh instead.

        They're so bad. I had them for a while and lost the receipt so I threw the rest out. I purchased multiple packets and only one with the hole saw attachment thinking it would be fine.

        Luckily I purchased for around the same price a while ago. I'd have been (more) annoyed paying rrp.

        • Bjay on 17/11/2019 - 20:39

          I travelled like 20 minutes to get to the nearest bunnings who has stock but couldn't be bothered to return them as I already used 2 out of the 3 packs. I used a second one thinking I did something wrong with the first but it made no difference,LOL. Pretty useless stuff.

  • lomie on 17/11/2019 - 07:50

    What happens if you didn't know that the wall was repaired this way and you want to drill into the repaired spot to hang a picture. Is there sufficient strength between the saw and the gyprock?

      you'd plug it

  • UFO on 17/11/2019 - 11:08

    Only 4 inches??

    That simply won't do for most jobs.

    (K go…)

    • zombie hunter on 17/11/2019 - 19:23

      You right a person head is bigger than that

    • petry on 17/11/2019 - 19:26

    Thanks, grabbed 3, sure they will come in handy.

  • zombie hunter on 17/11/2019 - 19:26

    JusT use cornice cement dries fast as hard as a rock.

    The Bunnings to ebay migration is getting momentum. I bought one ages ago only to have to get the second part of the kit as in the early days they squeezed most profit out of a newbie.. It worked ok with minimal mess. Prefect where the door stop was missing and the knob punched a hole in the gyprock. Even a small fist hole was just done in minutes. Having the cornice cement bucket tipping over in a carpeted trunk was even more fun!
