From quick touch-ups to small but mighty upgrades, these five tasks will have your home looking and feeling brand new in no time:<\/p>\n

Touch Up Walls <\/strong><\/p>\n

As time goes on, walls can show signs of wear, from small dents to nail holes. Restore them to their former glory by patching holes and imperfections with DAP DryDex®<\/sup> Nail Hole Filler<\/a>, now available in a convenient 1-fluid-ounce tube as part of the DAP On-The-Go line. This spackling goes on pink and dries white, indicating when it’s ready to be sanded and painted. Finish with a fresh coat of paint for a crisp, clean look.<\/p>\n
