Abstract
A preformed laminate structure for repairing and patching damaged areas of drywalls is adapted to be cemented thereto and comprises a backing member made from thin sheet material and sufficiently large to cover the area to be repaired and a facing member cemented to the backing member and also made of thin sheet material of the same shape but of less size than the size of the backing member.
Claims2
A preformed laminate structure for patching and repairing damaged areas on previously installed drywalls, comprising:
- (a) a backing member made from conventional, thin, drywall board cover paper material of uniform thickness adapted to be made pliable by dipping in water;
- and
- (b) a facing member also made from said conventional thin, drywall board cover paper material adapted to be made pliable by dipping in water and having the same shape but of less size than the size of said backing member and centrally positioned on said backing member with one side of said facing member being cemented directly to one side of said backing member so as to have a uniform margin formed by the thickness of said backing member between the respective outer edges of said backing and facing members and an even thickness of material corresponding to the sum of the thicknesses of said backing and facing members in the area where said members are cemented together thereby permitting the laminate structure to be made pliable by dipping in water prior to application.
