DAP DryDex Spackling is a ready‑to‑use patching compound featuring a unique pink‑to‑white Dry Time Indicator, which visibly shows when the repair is fully dry and ready for sanding or painting—removing the guesswork from wall repair. Its smooth, easy‑spreading formula fills holes, cracks, dents, and surface defects in drywall, plaster, wood, brick, and stone.
DryDex dries hard, resists cracking, and sands cleanly to a smooth finish. It is suitable for both interior and exterior use, and once dry, it is fully paintable without the need for priming on interior surfaces.
Designed for fast project turnaround, DryDex repairs up to 1/8" deep can dry in as little as one hour, with larger repairs requiring layered applications.
