DAP ALEX PLUS Spackling is a professional-strength, ready-to-use compound for repairing holes, cracks, dents and surface imperfections in drywall, plaster, wood, brick, metal and stone. The 1-gallon pail provides a convenient supply for repeated repairs and larger maintenance or repainting projects. Its smooth white formula spreads easily and feathers neatly into the surrounding surface, giving you time to work without gumming up the putty knife. Designed to resist sinking, shrinking, cracking, crumbling and flaking, it sands easily and helps create a uniform finish under flat and low-sheen paints.
Suitable for interior and exterior repairs, ALEX PLUS Spackling is typically ready for sanding or painting in 1–5 hours, depending on temperature, humidity and repair depth. Stir thoroughly, apply to a clean, dry surface and build repairs deeper than ⅛ inch in thin layers, allowing each layer to dry. Allow the repair to dry fully before sanding or applying oil-based paint, and always finish exterior repairs with a quality exterior paint. Clean tools immediately with water. This product is intended for localized repairs, not skim coating, floors or joints that move.
