My wife and I are repainting our bathroom. It came with a border at the top
of the wall which we have had a HECK of a time getting off. In some places
we have scraped past the paper of the drywall. We have put putty up and
sanded it and painted but it looks odd. The wall itself where we havent
scraped has the consistency of the outside of an orange, but the repaired
section is smooth and different.

Is there a way to make the patches look like the undamaged sections, short
of putting up new drywall?? We are new to any type of drywall repairs
so....thanks for any information. God bless.
