    🛠 For my US, UK, Canada &amp; Europe audience: This is the product that I used in the video. The 3M High Strength Crack (Or Large Hole Repair) Repair is fiber-reinforced, doesn&apos;t shrink, and bridges hairline cracks perfectly.

    LOVE Gardz primer. &nbsp;Used cases of it in painting, papering prep, and faux finish prep. We reapply when still wet until the surface stops taking it. &nbsp;Great under wallpaper. Paste doesn&apos;t disappear, and paper removal requires less washing.

    As a senior I&apos;ve heard many different ways on repairing &nbsp;cracks but this sounds logical and easily doable. I&apos;m still filling cracks but will be doing it you way next. Thanks😊
