Plaster Wall Patch



The top photo is of a crack in a plaster wall. At one time there was an unvented gas heater on the floor in front of this wall. I thought it was neat how the crack took the shape of a flame. I had cleaned out the crack and applied a bonding agent.
The bottom picture is of the patch ready to be painted. All of this work was done basically along the lines of the Parks Service Preservation Briefs which I have linked on this blog. Look under patching plaster walls in the index. What do you think of this?
If you need help with something like this let me know.
