If you don't have specialty primer, wood glue works well too. Thinly spread the wood glue over the brown paper, let it dry and cure, rough it up a bit, then you can mud and paint as usual. If you're doing a small repair, people are way more likely to have wood glue on hand than specialty primer. As a complete novice trying to repair the wall damage from a really terrible "professional" vanity installation, I had like 15 square inches of damaged brown paper, and this worked a treat, no bubbling at all.

Agreed. Zinsser RED Label Shellac is the GO-TO product for this and a perfect primer for all cabinets and wood. You should let people know that it is not water based-Denatured alcohol is it's solvent. (not isopropyl or rubbing alcohol). I was on a job once, where another professional painter threw Red Label down a client's kitchen sink, right through the disposal. ( I would never put any paints down a sink. Period) Then she ran water through it. By the time I figured out what she had done, yelling "IT IS NOT WATER BASED!" I threw an entire gallon of Denatured alcohol down the sink to chase it. Fortunately, disaster was avoided...but in the "long term" I honestly do not know how it turned out.

I bought some Roman pro 999 RX 35 because when i called zisner they told me they dont make a product that is designed to seal torn drywall paper. I havnt used it yet. I cant remember a specific time i had to repair over torn paper but i know in 30 years of building and remodeling i have encountered it. I never searched around trying to find out how to fix it. Im sure i cleaned it up best i could. Primed it and put mud on it. Ive never had a call back on any job for my work failing but after being out of the loop for several years i started watching youtube videos and got scared i was doing something wrong. I figured technology has changed so maybe drywall and mud has too. I dont know if i just got taken or if i just got lucky for 30 years. I figure the rx35 is prob better than just a primer coat but like i said my old way never failed me. Good video. I wish i had seen it before i searched the world over for the rx35 they are so proud of money wise

David, you are absolutely right. Sealing the paper is not the way, just a way. Like you, I had fixed many a drywall repairs (torn paper) with just mud. It always worked and I always received a nice finished product... but it never failed that I would get that errant bubble of the paper and I’d have to fight it to get the job done. With sealing the paper I’m able to complete the job quicker, with less chance of bubble or stray paper. When I had my handyman business, and now as a builder I’ve got to have quick ways to get each job done so I can move to the next. Thanks for watching

Ive mudded over entire walls like this many times , it does bubble up in places but then i slice the ripples or bubbles down the middle with a sharp razor knife so the moisture from the compound can get inside the dry area of the bubbles and when it drys it will suck the bubbles down .Then i sand it all them broom off the majrity of the drywall dust then go back over it with a second coat of mud thinned down with just a touch of water ,then i let it dry overnight or use a big fan for a couple hours then go over it with a 220 sanding screen then broom it down or use a shop vac with a brush attachment to get as much drywall dust as possible off the walls then i prime the drywall then paint it, The key is getting that first coat of mud mixed right on the first coat so it wets the paper just enough. my master bedroom was entirely covered with 2 layers of old wallpaper. i sprayed California knockdown texture over the walls. 15 years and it still looks perfect, could use some paint now to freshen it up

I have an entire drywall panel that needs repair. The previous owners removed wallpaper from a panel of drywall that had not been primed and took all the drywall paper off too. I cannot afford to have the panel replaced, unfortunately. Is it possible to scrape and sand what's left then apply the Zinsser Primer to it? I realize replacing the panel would be the best but that's just not an option. Any advice is appreciated.

Will ZIn bin work . Ive been told I can just primer over the chalk . 1) Do I need to do both. 2) Can I just use a primer, what kind. I don't really trust what Ive been told because I cant see how anything will hold onto chalk. But, in seeing your vid. I believe you may have an answer. Really stuck. Anyone?

With exposed drywall, remove any loose material. Priming the exposed chalk (the actual drywall) don’t really matter. Depending on the size of the area, you can use 20 minute, 45 minute, or 90 minute mud to fill the area back to smooth. If it is a large area you may need to consider cutting out the damaged area and making a patch repair (with a new piece of drywall)

@@TonyCollumtheHOWTOHERO Thx so much. It was just a tiny bit of drywall paper and the dry mud worked with an add'l coat of joint compound and sanding. But 2 more issues arose. When I primed the entire wall to prepare for paint, the areas I repaired are flat/dull and not like the rest of the wall. What'd I do wrong? Don't dare paint yet for fear patches will be different than rest of wall. 2nd- some of walls have a little texture from someone painting with a 1/2" roller. Some of wall is smooth because of my repair with hot mud and some remain a little textured. Do I need to skim coat all the walls? Yikes. Thx. Suggestions?

I’m no drywall expert by any means... I’ve just repaired a bunch on my own but, the only issue I see is the nail heads are not “set” in the drywall. Potentially, you could set the nails, if it’s torn paper, seal it, mud all nail holes, sand and then skim the entire wall for a smooth finish. It’s going to be quite a bit of work but will look great in the end.

You say in this video that Gardz and B-I-N work the exact same way, but the instruction manual for B-I-N says to use Gardz first: "Damaged drywall should be repaired prior to priming. Spot prime area of torn drywall facing paper or exposed gypsum core with GardZ® Problem Surface Sealer and then skim coat with drywall mud before priming the total area with B-I-N Shellac-Base Primer." Would also be curious to hear your advice for when the paper is completely gone, i.e. when significant bare gypsum is exposed.

My advice is not meant to be contradictory to the manufacturer by any means...I’m just giving my advice on what I’ve had work for me. At the end of the day the goal is to seal the paper. Even an oil based paint could do that. This was just to help keep others from wasting time putting mud over bare paper. Also, I don’t see the point in buying $100 worth of material for such a simple fix (both products are close to $50 a gallon). Depending on how big of an area of bare gypsum you are dealing with, I would treat it just like the other repairs...seal, mud, and finish.

Usually the bubble will go away once the primer is dry. If you have to remove paper because of bubbling try and apply the primer lightly the next time. A “dry brush” application of the primer will seal without adding too much liquid which cause bubbling

Would this work on a whole wall? I peeled the paint of the entire wall on my garage from the previous owner painting it a horrible sky blue with tree decals on it, and most of the wall went down to the brown drywall paper. Would the shellac base and then drywall compound work for the entire wall? Or is there a better option? Thank you sir!

Now I'm priming but the repair is taking the primer differently than the rest of the wall. Don't know what causes that. Afraid to paint bcuz the repaired areas are drying dull, not like the rest of the wall. I might have to skim coat entire wall?

@@jazz901 I’m assuming your repairs were done well and the walls seem flat and straight. Not trying to sound condescending here but I’ve seen some pretty bad repair jobs and the following tips will not help a bad repair. However based on your statements it seems like you took care of business… totally normal for the repair area to take the primer/topcoat differently. The drywall repair spot is a sponge…it will soak up the primer/paint. Use a good quality primer. You can even use the BIN primer I talked about. On big repair jobs I use a PVA primer. Even with the primer, the areas of repairs will look a little different. Primer is usually a flat and dull paint. By itself it is porous. However, the first topcoat of paint will seal the primer and then the second coat will match the surrounding areas (as long as you matched the paint) go ahead and plan on 2 coats of paint.

After the primer you are ready to skim with drywall mud. A lightweight drywall compound is easier to sand, but takes longer to dry. Or, you can go with a 20 minute or 90 minute mud…dries faster (because of the additives added) but is harder to sand. Not terribly hard but a noticeable difference from the lightweight mud

Gardz is more of a treatment coating for problem areas...where BIN is a “primer”. BIN doesn’t replace Gardz, but like you, Gardz isn’t available in my area so I used something I knew would seal the paper and keep it from bubbling.

Not necessarily. I’ve done plenty without doing this trick...before I knew it. The problem is the paper (brown paper) likes to bubble. And the bubble shows as you start sanding to finish. So, if you sand and see the paper starting to bubble you may want to try sanding down to the repair and sealing. Not the end of the world, just frustrating

You mean the mud started dripping? If so, you are applying to much mud at one time. Pull thin, tight coats with light sanding between to achieve desired results. Or you had the mud too thin and it wasn’t holding in position.
