USG Sheetrock brand Total All Purpose Joint Compound is a high-performance compound specifically formulated for the professional drywall finisher. It weighs up to 25% less than conventional-weight compounds and provides superior workability, including slick application, good open time, excellent crack resistance and easy sanding. Special vacuum processing and patented formulation technology eliminate entrained air to minimize cratering and minor surface imperfections. Vinyl formulation ensures professional quality finishing as well as low shrinkage. Metal, such as corner bead and fasteners, usually can be covered with just two coats, saving time and money. Compound is ideal for embedding tape and filling and finishing coats in interior gypsum panel applications. Also for covering corner bead, fasteners and trim, for skim-coating gypsum panel surfaces and for hand-applying simple textures.
