    This method isn’t durable. A push on that area and pressure cracks will form. For no bumps, screw in some spare drywall behind the hole inside the wall. Then apply a nice thick coat of 45 basecoat until it is level with the rest of the wall. Make sure the basecoat is not too runny, almost like putty or thick mud. Apply to the hole. The spare piece of drywall will hold the basecoat in place. Use a final skim of topcoat and sand smooth.
