1 gal. Joint Compound
Ready-mixed joint compound for taping, filling and finishing gypsum board seams. It is supplied premixed in a sealed pail, so it needs only stirring before use rather than proportioning and mixing dry powder on site.
Compound of this type is applied in successive thin coats with a taping knife or finishing trowel, allowed to dry between passes and sanded smooth to blend the joint into the surrounding panel face. Being air-drying rather than chemically setting, it stays workable in the pan and can be reopened as long as the pail is kept covered.
The smaller pail size suits patch work, repairs and small rooms where a full 4.5 gallon bucket would harden before it is used up.
Key Features
- Ready-mixed and premixed in the pail - no dry mixing or measuring required
- Air-drying formula that remains workable in the pan and can be resealed between uses
- Smooth, low-shrink consistency that feathers out at the edges of a joint

- Used with paper or mesh joint tape for bedding and topping coats
- Pail size suited to patching and small-area work
