What Customers Are Saying

The product received mixed reviews. Some found it effective and easy to use for small indoor repairs, praising its smooth application, quick drying, and ability to hold paint. However, many reported issues such as the compound being too thin and runny, sagging or dripping when applied, and taking a long time to fully dry. Some also experienced mold growth after storage. The consensus seems to be that the product may work well for some applications but has significant limitations, especially for larger or outdoor repairs.

Door replacement

Would Recommend

I used Presto Patch where I had a 3/8th in. sheet rock meeting a plaster wall. I built up and feathered toward plaster and it came out great. I am a DYI'er and I couldn't be happier with this product. It went on smooth,dried nicely, sanded easily and when I finished with joint compound it looked great.

Mine was damaged- returned

Would Not Recommend

The seal on mine didn’t work and it ended up unusable. Props to Lowe’s team for the easy return. Ended up getting a local product because there aren’t any Lowe’s near my house and returning it. I’d assume if it’s not damaged it would work great!

Textured Patio Floor Repair

Would Recommend

The floor on my patio is a lightweight concrete decorative stamp on top of concrete slab. I chose Presto Patch to fill log cracks that developed. I chip out loose material and opened the crack to accept a decent amount of material. Presto Patch was easy to work with to mimic the decorative pattern. After drying I sanded and painted without issue. Its has been 8 months and I have not experienced any flaking or deterioration, its holding up well under foot traffic.

JUNK

It's like working with rubber infused peanut butter. 1/8" takes 2 days to dry.

Pick something else

Would Not Recommend

As a contractor, I used this product for some drywall repair and cannot overstate how disappointing the material is. Application was around a 1/4 thick and this stuff sagged terribly. Small holes that were adjacent to the patch that I would normally spackle emptied down the wall when filled with presto patch. 24 hours later, the patch is still soft. Pick something else.

Too runny

Would Not Recommend

I read the label and I thought it was good for patching a hole in plaster. It just runs out of the hole, took it back and got plaster of Paris, but apparently Lowes doesn't carry a good plaster wall patch. Not that I can find at least.

I would this a freind

Would Recommend

It works fine shapes and sands easy. I have used it for many things. I put up crown moulding in dinning room and living room. One wall was very crooked so I made a templet out of masonite. And made a sweep till I got the shape. It worked fine. My only complaint with storage it has gotten mouldy black and I am afraid to use it.
