* 1
Chip away the loose and damaged plaster on the inside perimeter of the hole using a cold chisel and a hammer. Carefully pull out any debris. Cut the inside edges of the hole with a utility knife, making the hole wider at the base, next to the lath, than at the surface.
* 2
Wet a sponge with water. Dampen the lath behind the plaster and the interior surface of the hole using the sponge. Mix the patching plaster in a bucket according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fill in the hole with the patching plaster using a putty knife. Apply it to within 1/4-inch of the surface of the finished wall. Allow 24 hours for the patching plaster to dry.
* 3
Mix a second bucket of patching plaster following the manufacturer's instructions. Wet a sponge and dampen the first layer of plaster inside the hole. Apply a second layer of patching plaster atop the first using a putty knife. Run the edge of a carpenter's square down the wall, across the hole, to smooth the plaster so that it is flush with the finished wall. Wait 24 hours for the patch to dry.
* 4
Smooth down any bumps in the patching plaster that dried on the wall around the outside perimeter of the patch using fine sandpaper. Apply a smooth coat of drywall joint compound over the patch using a drywall knife. Make sure the compound is smooth with the surrounding wall area, especially around the edges of the compound. Wait 24 hours for it to dry.
* 5
Wrap a piece of fine sandpaper around a wood block. Sand the dried drywall compound to create a smooth surface. Paint the patch to match the surrounding wall.
