DESCRIPTION

DAP Wallboard Joint Compound is a ready-to-use formula for smooth, high-quality wallboard finishing. Use it to embed reinforcing tape and finish gypsum panel joints, as well as cover nail heads and metal corner beads for a clean, paint-ready surface. Its minimal shrinkage and crack resistant formula helps you achieve a smooth finish with fewer touch-ups, while the creamy paste consistency allows for easy spreading and feathering. Dry time is approximately 8 to 24 hours; allow about 24 hours between applications before decorating. Designed for interior use on wallboard surfaces, this compound is ideal for joint finishing, tape embedding, fastener coverage, corner bead finishing, patching, and texturing. For best results, wet sanding is recommended to prevent generating airborne dust. Applications subject to water exposure must be sealed with a waterproof coating prior to moisture exposure.
