Review: Pink to White Perfection—Best Bang for Your Buck! - I’ve used a lot of spackling products over the years, but the DAP DryDex is hands-down my favorite. The color-changing feature is genius—it goes on pink and dries white, so you know exactly when it’s ready to sand and paint. No more guessing or premature sanding disasters! The texture is smooth and easy to apply, whether you're patching drywall, plaster, wood, or even brick. It dries quickly, sands down beautifully, and doesn’t crack or crumble like some of the cheaper alternatives. For deeper repairs, just layer it up and let it dry between coats—it holds up great. And let’s talk value: for the price, this 1-quart tub goes a long way. I’ve used it for multiple rooms and still have plenty left. It’s like the Swiss Army knife of wall repair, and my walls have never looked better. My home is happy, my paint job is flawless, and my inner DIYer is doing a victory dance. If you want reliable performance without overspending, this is the spackle to get!
Review: Great product! Worked better than the last stuff I got. - It’s great that it applies pink, then dries white when ready for sanding. I HATE doing drywall, but at least with this it was a bit easier. The consistency of the “mud” is perfect! You get a lot of it too. I bought my last bottle at ACE and it costed me 2x what I paid here. I didn’t think to check desertcart for this before, but I’m glad I did. I didn’t have any issues with my bucket arriving broken, or leaking in any way. I think maybe others might have purchased during a hot streak. The heat would make it expand in the bucket, and it would rupture. So, that’s something to consider. I bought mine in early October, with temps in the 60-70s. I also noticed that this blend was particularly easy to apply compared to others I’ve used. Requires less sanding that way, which is really great. Clean up is a breeze; water and your hands will do. I will not buy any other type from now on. This will be my go to. I hope my review helps. 😊

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this "show" after being painted, like the quick-shot stuff does?**
A: not if you let it dry and sand it properly. make sure you make it as smooth and even as possible when applying. After sanding, and painting it is not visible.

**Q: can this able to use hand to put on the surface or have to use tools ?**
A: Depending on size of the job or how often you want to add the products, you could use your hand. If it's a big job, I would suggest using a tool, but I have always used my fingers to apply this product. The biggest job I have used it on required have required me to apply numerous coats, as without a tool, you will not be able to get a smooth lay of the product with your hands or fingers. Since I'm using for personal use at home, I don't mind if my job takes a week or so, without multiple applications. For example, to repair a hole in the wall, from a door stop plate I pulled off, the plates adhesive took off a good chunk of the wall off,  a little more than a quarter inch deep and about the size of my hand. I applied drydex a bit at a time, to get nice thin smooth layers. After about 10-12  applications over a week or so, I had a slight mound over the area, at which time I was ready to sand it level. It was perfectly smooth and level, at which time I painted it with 2 layers.

Another reason I don't like to use big chunks at a time, with tools, you will not be able to fill in all the nooks and crannies of your hole with a putty knife, unless you go slowly and work it in. Even then, when you use a lot of drydex, expect it to shrink as it dries. This might cause you to have to add more with a 2nd coat or just add a good mount, where you can just sand it down to be level.

**Q: How much coverage will I get from this size?**
A: I was able to spakle 4 holes plugs that were 6" diameter using about 1/8" of the tub. Including 3 applications for finishing and sanding.

**Q: Trying to cover styrofoam diorama with this, can it be made watery to go on smoother or is this clumpy**
A: I don't know how watery it will get, but adding water does smooth it out. A lot!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very effective
*by D***R on December 3, 2024*

I recently tried this product, and it has completely changed my approach to minor home repairs. Whether one is a DIY or a seasoned professional, this should be a must-have in every interior or exterior project. The application is very smooth, and the texture is just perfect: firm enough to stay in place, yet pliable enough to spread evenly. What really impressed me was the color-changing technology: it goes on pink and dries white, so it is foolproof to know if it is ready for sanding or painting. It turned out great and really just blends right in with my walls. I used it to cover some ripped wall paint, and it’s like they never were there. Cleanup was pretty minimal, which I appreciated. All I needed for cleanup of my tools or any accidental mess was a damp cloth. When dry, it simply sands down to a professional-quality finish with ease. The 1-quart size works great for more than one project without running out. This product yields outstanding results no matter the big or small of a project. Highly recommended for ease of use, great texture, and a professional finish!
