What Customers Are Saying

The product appears to have mixed reviews. Some users found it easy to apply, quick-drying, and effective for small wall repairs. However, many others reported issues like sagging, slow drying, and poor consistency. Several reviewers noted the instructions were inaccurate, leading to problems when mixing and applying the product. Some felt it was not suitable for outdoor or vertical applications. Overall, the product may work well for minor indoor wall patching when used correctly, but has limitations and may not be suitable for more demanding repair jobs.

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.

Didn't get hard enough when dry! Moving fridge on it make mark on the floor.

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.

Ceiling patch

Would Recommend

Product used to repair/fill some old Can lighting holes in the ceiling along with Drywall repair patches. Product worked well, good consistence held on the knife and easily smoothed out on the ceiling, worked very well with the smaller sized patches. On the larger patches the compound appeared too heavy and they came off but applying the mud first held the patch in place to dry and then a second and finish coat was applied. Product still retains its consistence after 10 days of opening using and...

Must get for patching

Would Recommend

This product works so much better than regular spackle. For tough jobs, or the bigger than average hole, use this.
