Last year, I fixed my wall holes with Elmer's glue. They dried to a smoothness very similar to that of the wall, but you could see right through them. So, I finished the project by painting over the dried glue with whiteout. Afterwards, it was almost impossible to find the repair job, even if you knew where to look.
My mother, on the other hand, swears by the toothpaste technique.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty
