Hi there,
I've not done any DIY home maintenance before, and I recently punched a hole in the garage wall of my rental, and was told by many people I should just be able to DIY it myself instead of needing to get a handyman in, but I'm struggling to find clear guidance on my next steps.
I've been following multiple tutorials on how to fix a hole in the wall, from both bunnings and other sources (i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4P4IE0OrUE&ab_channel=BunningsWarehouse, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvQK7WTkKpI) and I'm for the most part happy with how I've done both the patch and filler.
However, I'm struggling to find supplies or D.I.Y. advice that breaks down every element of how to paint the filled hole, as I want to get it as close as possible through reasonable means. I'm not sure how to get the same texture as the rest of the wall (which I assume is an orange peel texture), and what primer I should use for a patch that isn't too big, amongst other things. I figured I'd ask directly, as I'm not too sure what specific questions I should be asking, where to get supplies, and how much of the fix I can actually do. Pictures of my wall and the repair so far are below.
I'd appreciate any guidance of any kind to help me navigate my next steps.
