Gets the job done

I was filling a hole that was drilled into my bedroom wall to test for insulation. The hole was 1 inch in diameter. I have never patched a hole before. Though I am very handy usually my husband does that job so it was a great test of the patch kit. I followed the instructions with the included patch, cut it to size and applied it like they said but when I was done I felt like the patch was very noticeable so I ended up peeling up the wall patch and using the spackle to close the hole on its own. I think for smaller repairs the patch is unnecessary as I got a flawless look this way. I love that it goes in pink and dries white so I didn't have to guess if it was dry enough to sand. I would definitely but the spackle again but maybe not the patch kit unless I'm filling a fairly large hole.

Easy to use

I received a DAP DryDex Spackling Kit for free in exchange for my honest review. My son helped me repair a wall in the bathroom. This kit is a fantastic tool for quick and easy wall repairs. The spackling compound goes on smoothly and changes color from pink to white as it dries. This feature ensures you know exactly when it’s time to sand and paint. The kit includes all the essentials for patching holes, and the finished result is seamless and durable.
I found the patch to be a bit thick, and it would be more comfortable to use a sanding block rather than sandpaper. After sanding, we decided to apply one more coat for smoother edges. Now, our wall is almost ready for paint! It was that easy. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced DIYer, the DAP DryDex Spackling Kit is a reliable and convenient option for small home repairs.

Great kit for beginners!

I was gifted this kit for free in exchange for my honest review.
I think this is the perfect kit for beginner DIYers, or those who don’t do much DIY and therefore don’t have materials on hand. This little kit has everything you need to repair a few small holes in drywall. Bonus for impatient patchers like me - it goes on pink and dries white, so there’s no risk of sanding too early! It is easy to apply and goes on smooth, so it’s almost foolproof. I think the only thing I don’t love is the patch - it is quite thick, and while it’s great for filling larger holes, a novice DIYer might try to use the patch on top of a small hole, leading to a bump instead of smooth drywall. Clearer instructions or examples of when the patch should be used would be helpful!

Easy way to patch your mishaps in drywall

Received the Wall Repair Patch Kit featuring DRYDEX Dry Time Indicator Spackling for free to test. It included the spackle, a small putty knife (in case you don't have one) a small 13cmx13cm patch for holes and a piece of sand paper. I didn't have any holes to fix so i didn't test the patch, but I'm sure it'll work fine , even if cut into smaller pieces for smaller repairs, but it seems a bit thick for my liking. I just used the spackle to fix a few scratches and dings in my wall and liked the the color changing from pink (when still moist) to white when dry. I let it dry a bit longer even after it turned white to make sure it's fully dry. It was easy to sand with my sanding sponge, but it produced quiet a bit of white spackle dust, the dust didn't fly in the air but fell straight down. On very shallow repairs i didn't even use sanding, i just wiped lightly over it with a damp cloth a few times which smoothed it out enough for repainting and no mess from sanding. Overall I'm happy with the product (spackle) , it was smooth and easy to apply, but i think if someone is using the hole patch, it might be to thick for someone who has never fixed a hole with spackle and tries to make an invisible repair. The patch might be strong but it'll take quite a bit of work to get it even with the wall. Your milage my vary :)

Good patchwork

I received this product complimentary from Butterly! I had some spots to patch up and it worked fantastically. The application was easy and good job done.

It’s ok

This product is easy to use if you need to fix small spots, it’s too thick to work , you would need to add some water to it to make it smoother, it’s easier and faster to use your own spatula and sand paper if the spot you’re fixing is larger.
Other than that, it’s ok.

Good product for touch-up

Although I have received the product for free as part of a promotion, and after using it, I find its effective for touch-up on the walls imperfections.
