DRYWALL REPAIR
THIS PRODUCT IS THE BEST STUFF FOR DRYWALL CRACKS.

Can't find in stores
I use this spackling often since first trying it. Easy to use, smooth and doesn't leave micro holes in the finish like many others do. It's thickness is similar to drydex but a bit creamier. Sticks just as well and dries fairly quickly. I mainly use it for settling cracks but have also used it for general purposes.

A little thick
It is a little thick, which can be goodAlso, it's a little hard to sand kinda gummed up the sandpaperBut it does cover cracks well

Reoccurring cracks
So far I like it and find it easy to spread. I was doing some larger repairs/cracks so I also used fiberglass mesh tape beneath it. It definitely has a different texture than your everyday spackle. More rubbery. I'm also applying very thin layers in increments & feathering to avoid sanding. I'm not convinced about the ease of sanding & allowing 12 hour drying time between coats. If those cracks never return, mission accomplished ๐

Does not flex with cracks
The product was simple and easy to apply to the wall. Unfortunately this product claims to flex with fine cracks but after applying the product as directed, the crack reappeared in two weeks. The second attempt I left leaving it for a week before sanding and paint, the crack still reappeared within two weeks. Back to the drawing board and not with this product.

Not as workable as regular, but certainly manageable. Used on small recurrent lath & plaster cracks
We removed several tons of junk from an attic, and then the lath and plaster walls started in with more cracking due to the weight being removed. Regular sheet rock patch would be applied and small cracks would re-form. I recoated several times. After about 3 months of that, I moved to this product. Now there are no more cracks. I can attribute the lack of recurrent cracks to this product, or that the building simply was done reacting to the lost attic weight. One cannot say. Either way, I wish I started with this product first as it may have saved me some time.

Does What It Says
This stuff really does what it says. It's hard to find, and not normally stocked in hardware stores or big box stores. It has the elasticity it promises, and is easily sandable and paintable, very important characteristics!
