Description
Lite Sand setting compounds are lightweight, sandable, chemically setting powders used to pre-fill joints, embed joint tape and conceal joints, fasteners and trim accessories on gypsum wallboard. They can also be used for interior patching and repair. They are ideal for heavy fills because they are specially formulated to harden with very little shrinkage in a prescribed time frame. This compound is formulated for lower water addition which dries faster, gives a stronger bond, and is creamier consistency. The setting time is about 90 minutes. CertainTeed ensures your complete satisfaction with a 1-year limited warranty.

Better than sheetrock
In contrast to the other two reviews here, I would never use setting compound for a finish coat that would need sanded. That aside, this product is so much easier and nicer to work with than sheetrock 90. Just make sure you haven't purchased the high density compound, that stuff is impossible to sand. Maybe that's what these other guys bought. It's often the only 90 minute compound that the store has.
I have suggested this product to others, and one guy switched to certainteed from cgc because of it.

Awesome for Drywall Art
I am an artist and this is the best material I have found to make my bas-relief sculptures that have been a complete success in my professional career.
I love it

Not great
Bought this and very difficult to sand. Need a belt sander and even then it won’t do anything.never experienced anything like this with any other fast setting compound.

I agree with the other review that this stuff is too hard to sand. Buy the CGC brand its really good to work with

Sets Fast
Don’t listen to the diy homeowner bozos who are trying to use this product for a finish coat. I like using this product to set tape and for the 1st/2nd coat when drying time is an issue.
