I've used this product before and it works okay but has some issues. The whole pink to white feature its kind of useless in my experience. Anyone that knows how to read a clock can get by without it.The real issue I've found is its durability. I've used other spackles that simply hold up better. DryDex is fine for patching nail holes but don't use it where it'll see any kind of wear and tear. Around outside corners, around doorjambs, large patches, that kind of thing. It pops ..
Dap usually has very good spackling material and this is even better. The color changing ability is very handy. Wet it's pink; dry it's white. Otherwise it's basically the normal quick dry spackling that you can use to repair defects in your drywall using a spatula and some sand paper.
