What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this repair product for filling holes seamlessly with professional-looking results that outperform traditional spackle. The fiber-reinforced compound dries quickly, creates smooth paint-ready surfaces without cracking, and requires minimal sanding. Users appreciate its ease of application, versatility across drywall and wood surfaces, and ability to complete repairs in one day. Most find the thick, non-dripping consistency ideal for overhead work. A small number report adhesive backing issues causing patches to detach, though the vast majority consider it a reliable, all-in-one solution they'll use repeatedly.

Won’t dry!

Would Not Recommend

Don’t buy this product. It takes forever to become hard. It remains chalky and soft for a long time.

Fantastic product & time saver

Would Recommend

I'm a third generation drywall finisher I really enjoy this product. I use it for most touch up repair first coat application It eliminates the need for mesh, fiber, or paper tape reducing build up and build out of mud keeping patches much flatter

did the job...twice

Would Recommend

purchased this to repair a hole in a client's home where she created a hole behind her front door with her new doorknob... standard 5/8" drywall wall (1977 built) - worked like a charm so I bought one to repair a hole in my wall. not as easy to install on the older materials in my home (1950 built) but still easy to use and did the job with leftover compound both times. textured and painted after and now you cannot see there is even a patch.

Dry Time???

Would Recommend

The product worked very well for my purposes. BUT! Seriously 3M what’s the big secret about dry time before sanding or just in general. Give us something or at least a range in hours. You get minus one star for that alone.

Excellent except the package

Would Recommend

We have used this product extensively for repairs in our apartment units, it’s better than anything we’ve used before! My only complaint is the package. It comes sealed with plastic film, once opened it dries out quickly because the lid is so loose. It can’t stay on by itself, must be taped or weighted. Even then it doesn’t seal at all.

Good idea, no follow through

Would Not Recommend

The adhesive did not stick. Put it inside drywall like it was supposed to, held it 3x as long as directed to make sure it stuck, went to spackle over it, and the patch fell inside the wall. Didn’t hold at all.

Great for Filling Outlet Sized Hole

Would Recommend

We pulled out some redundant outlet boxes that previous owners put in. Works like a charm. We over filled the hole about 1mm up and 10mm outward. When it was dry, sanded smooth for the blend. Couldn’t even tell where it was after texturing and painting. Have used 4 of these with the same result.

Poor value for what you get.

Would Not Recommend

Had to repair and replace drywall where hand grip had been pulled out of wall, only used sparkle like material, mesh was too small, plastic pad for cement was useless. Plastic spackle knife was trash.
