What Customers Are Saying

The product is easy to use, applies smoothly, and dries quickly, allowing for a seamless finish. It sands well and is suitable for both small patching jobs and more extensive drywall repair and finishing tasks. The compound is generally considered a good value, particularly in the smaller tub sizes, and works well for both novice and experienced users. While a few customers reported the compound being too thin or watery, these seem to be isolated issues.

Easy to use

Would Recommend

It works perfectly for what I need it to do. I had the asbestos popcorn scraped off my drywall ceiling, and they did a good job of not damaging the drywall too much, so I only need to level off some areas before I paint the ceiling. This pre-mixed mud is easy to apply and sand. Remember to apply in thin coats - it's much easier to do multiple coats than it is to sand through too much mud.
