Ratings & Reviews for DAP 4.0 -lbs Powder Plaster of Paris Drywall Joint Compound Carton

Perfect to make chalk paint

This is a great product I made chalk paint by adding 2 T of pop and warm water to the paint. The consistency was perfect.

Plaster of paris

Was exactly what I expected. Used to make a mold to use for pottery

Needed to fill a gap in drywall with no real support. Using backer rod and this product, it sealed the gap great.

Used for chalk paint

We use the plaster of Paris to make our own chalk paint for DIY projects so far it’s the best and least expensive way to do it.

Fast-acting, permanent fix for gaps

It's easy to mix and has a reasonable working time but sets up quickly enough to move on with your job. It is quite hard, so don't overfill holes or it will be very hard to sand down.

School project

Used it for a school project and it did exactly what I needed it to

WORKED GREAT FOR MAKING CHALK PAINT FOR CABINET REDO.

Molding for repairs

Friend had antique, large picture/painting frame that had a corner section chipped off. I made a silicone mold of a good section and used the plaster of Paris to pour nto the mold. when hardened, I trimmed the replacement piece to size, glued it in and repainted the restored section to match the rest of the frame.

Plaster

Works as directed. Good price. Good size for small projects around the house.

Plaster walls.

Used this to patch up and smooth out some plaster on my walls. You have to use small batches it dries very quick. It works great and sets fast. Once you get the hang of it the product is great. If you haven’t used this before give it a little trial and error before trying to do a large project.

Make your own chalk paint.

I love the plaster of Paris to mix with my paint and water. It mixes great with no lumps and makes a wonderful chalk paint
