Used to fill holes left by large drywall anchors

I wanted to buy this to fill holes left by removing drywall anchors. I then decided to google the experts to see what was most relevant. Construction professionals have found that this product is not ideal for filling anchor holes in drywall due to the fact that clay within drywall shrinks. I've looked at some DIY projects on YouTube and they all say that clay shrinks in a drywall, so don't use it to fill holes left by removing drywall anchors. The putty was recommended. I bought Red Devil Putty online because DAP was out of stock. This product crumbled and never hardened. A few days later it still felt soft. I was trying to fill a hole with this product that formed when removing a drywall anchor. This putty product did not work. Instead of buying dap I decided to take a chance and follow my first instinct and buy this product. It completely filled the hole. Didn't drip or crumble. For me, this product was completely dry in 12 hours. The expert said that it dries for a long time. It was a professional product. I regret going to YouTube to listen to the "experts". They were wrong as to the effectiveness of this product for filling screw holes in drywall. The hole in the drywall was 1/2 inch in diameter and had no shrinkage. I highly recommend this product. It was an A+ product and Red Devil Putty got an F.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
