Ratings & Reviews for DAP DryDex 1 Gallons Premixed Lightweight Drywall Joint Compound Bucket

Good product. Will continue to use

Works well. The color changing aspect is helpful. Probably not necessary for those that are very experienced. Beyond that I like the texture. It's easy to apply and easy to work with.

Garbage

This is the worst drywall compound I have ever used. It’s costing more time, money and sanity. I basically need to sand it all off and start over with a new bucket of a different brand. Off to the store again!

Horrible Product

This is the worst product i've ever used. I had a small area where i needed to add drywall. I used this and 20 min later there was a mudslide down the wall. Also don't get me started on the 60 minuet dry time. I waited a week after the first mudslide and this stuff STILL WASNT dry..

Pink Works But Not Very Easy To Use

The colorant does indicate when product is dry. However, the product is gummy-like, does not adhere well to a dry surface, and doesn’t feather very well

The product is very smooth!

The product is very smooth but you must remove air pockets before apply on the plaster

See title

It's joint compound. What do you want me to say?

Easy to apply and sand.

What a great product, dries fast and very low dust when sanding.

Defective Product

This product should be recalled. It’s defective. Maybe a bad batch; either way it’s junk. Dried for 4 days and when painted, peeled right off. It’s funny how the reviews lean very negative and DAP keeps defending this. However, other brands get great reviews.

Absolute Garbage

All of the users of this product including me should file a class action lawsuit against DAP. This stuff is utter garbage. Applied exactly like the directions state, dried and sanded (sanded very strange lime it was still wet), and painted. While painting, it instantly peeled the joint compound off and made an absolute disaster of the wall. I am reading the DAP responses to comments and they are downright ridiculous. DAP should be ashamed of this. I saved the can and doing some testing wit...

Would steer clear, low dust formulation is junk.

Pink is fun but when they added the low dust they ruined it. Gums up sandpaper and more of a mess since hard to vacuum. Returning it or throwing it out.

Horrible experience with this stuff

too thick, wouldn't stick to wall

Goes on pink , dries white

Easy to apply and easy to know when dry. Joint compound goes on pink and ready to sand when it turns white. Quick to dry. Will not use any other compound. We are on our third container.

This stuff is horrible. It literally drips/runs when being applied. I’ve used the spackle before so I tried this as well. The application is so liquid. It gets slung all over the place during application. Don’t buy this product.
