DAP DryDex Dry Time Indicator Spackling is America's #1 seller, containing the original Dry Time Indicator causing the product to change color when optimum dry time is achieved. It goes on pink and turns white when dry! This unique feature is the indicator that it is ready to sand and paint.
Application Instructions - Surface must be clean, dry and free of foreign material.
- Stir thoroughly before use. (When using the 5.5 oz squeeze tube, knead tube prior to use. Remove cap and cut nozzle to desired opening size.)
- Apply with a clean putty knife.
- One application is usually sufficient for small repairs. For repairs deeper than 1/8, apply two or more layers allowing spackling to dry between applications.
- For a smoother finish, dip putty knife in water and lightly smooth spackling.
- Spackling will change color to white when surface can accept a second application or is ready to be painted or sanded in 1 to 5 hours. Wet sanding is recommended to avoid generation of dust.
- Clean tools immediately with water.
