Awful product
a year ago
I have used Dap spackle before with no issues, so when I needed to patch a hole in the ceiling, I tried this.
It is an awful, defective product. It never dried. Even when I let it sit overnight, and it turned fully white, it was still moist and crumbly.
Don’t buy this. Buy an actual joint compound and save yourself the time and money. Dap should be ashamed to sell this.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I have never had an issue with bubbles in joint compound until I purchased this crap, which advertises that it reduces pinhole bubbles. Go figure.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Nice Product

Used this product for drywall repairs during room refurbishment. After reading the negative reviews, I wanted to share my experience. Bottom line up front: I love this product! After using 'hot' mud over mesh tape to repair settlement cracks, I used this for the skim/feathering coats. Adherence wasn't an issue and it went on smoothly. Dry time was fast, and I've experienced no issues covering the repairs with primer and latex paint.
Yes, I recommend this product.
