Tip For Repairing Nail Pops In Sheetrock
If your home is more than 10 years old there is a good chance that when your sheet rock was originally installed that sheet rock nails were used instead of sheet rock screws. Today, most sheet rock pros will use screws instead of nails when hanging sheet rock. If nails were used instead of screws as fastners to hang the sheet rock you probably have some "nail pops" in your walls. This term is used to describe a condition where the nail comes loose from the wood framing underneath and begins to pop through the sheet rock which creates a bulge on the surface of the sheet rock. In this article I will tell you how to fix this unsightly problem with just a few easy steps.
First, you will need a few tools and some materials to complete the repair. You will need some joint compound, a hammer, drywall nails, a putty knife, some sandpaper or a sanding block primer, paint and a sponge.
Cover the area below where you will be working with a drop cloth or some newspaper in order to protect the flooring. Next, using your hammer, tap the popped nail back into the sheet rock so that is is flush with the wall. Using a second light tap with the hammer, create a small dimple in the wall around the nail. Be sure not to hit the wall too hard because you could possibly put a hole in your sheet rock. Then place a drywall nail next to the original nail in order to hold the popped nail in place.
Using your putty knife, apply your joint compound over the nail head and dimpled area. Clean your putty knife and allow the joint compound to fully dry. Once the joint compound is fully dried, sand the area to a smooth finish and wipe off any remaining dust with your sponge.
Prime the area that you just repaired and allow the primer to fully dry. It is always best to use an oil based primer, it may take a bit longer to dry but it does perform better than the latex primers. Paint the repaired area with your original wall paint and you are finished. Once you paint the repaired area and you discover that the color does not match, you may have to paint the entire wall from corner to corner in order to receive the desired finish.
Repairing a nail pop is a very easy job and most homeowners can complete this repair with no problems. Good luck.

I just had an answer on another question that hit the nail on the head?
my ex dumped me because he didn't like me after a head injury. My life sucks now. I try and make it as good as I can but its hard. I think I am so jealous of my ex when I hear he is really happy with his new girl and he is off travelling and having so much fun and working in his dream job. I was engaged to him and it just kills me, I wanted that life with him but he couldn't handle what happened to me. How do I move on from this
well your obviously a better person than he is so hang in there, there's somebody for everyone.
