USG Beadex Brand Silver Set Lightweight Setting-Type Joint Compounds are chemically-setting compounds for interior gypsum panels and exterior gypsum ceiling board. These powder compounds mix easily with water and weigh up to 28% less than conventional setting-type joint compounds for easy handling. Provide sanding ease similar to a ready-mixed, all-purpose joint compound. They allow one-day finishing with next-day decoration to ensure rapid job completion and earlier occupancy. Compounds resist humidity for easy application in damp weather when drying-type compounds would delay job completion. Also excellent for patching and smoothing interior drywall and concrete surfaces because they provide superior bond, low shrinkage, and fast setting action.
