So I posted a few weeks ago here (Curtain rod ripped off wall). The issue was that the mortar or whatever was behind the plaster, was crumbling,thus making my curtain pole drop.
Eventually I ended up making 3 holes. I found some kind of metal beam with holes in it. So I was able to screw in piece of wood to it using anchor screws and make the whole thing secure.
Once covered,the curtain pole will screw into the pieces of wood and will remain sturdy.
What I need is to fill the hole around, primer and paint. What can i use to fill the gaps? Ideally I don't want to replaster for a small section. Is there an alternative?
