- 1). Clean out the crack with a knife and a vacuum. Make sure that you get all of the debris out of the crack.
- 2). Fill the crack with spackle using a putty knife. Remove any extra with your hand.
- 3). Cover the crack with drywall tape. You will have to cut the tape into strips to cover the crack.
- 4). Apply more spackle over the tape. Wipe off the knife so that the spackle does not get lumpy.
- 5). Using medium grit sand paper, sand the entire area of the crack. Paint the entire area of the crack.
