Jon;
I have nail heads(3) popping from my ceiling ,close to each other,45 yr. old house. Have tried to over years to hammer back into drywall, plaster and repaint to no avail. Is your 'nail
popping' video the answer in my case. Many thanks,John Pittana
Hello John,
Watch the video closely -- it will show you that nail popping is caused by long nails in wet wood. The solution, once the studs have dried out, is short screws, one on each side of the old nail.
