How to use "Full of holes" in context?
Holes are common in many materials, from fabrics and paper to rocks and ice. The holes in these materials allow air, water, and other materials to flow through them. Some holes are large enough that you can see them with the eye, while others are small enough that you can't see them without a microscope.
Holes can be important for the way materials behave. For example, holes in rubber and plastics make them bouncy and elastic. Holes in metal make it possible to create wires and other structures out of them.
Some holes are bad for materials.
