Joint Compound

[willmington]

Was looking to repair a plaster crack (using paper tape).

1. Can anyone recommend a ready mixed joint compound (finish / all purpose ie one with not too much glue).

2. Can this be purchased in smaller quantities, I don't really need a tub of 10Kgs.

Any info much appreciated. Cheers

Tetrion All Purpose Filler is what you need.

Tetrion not going to work. Tried it before.

There seems to be some sort of stress area at that point which require paper and joint compound remedy.

Tetrion is much too hard to rub down after. Its a nightmare, use a powdered filler that way it can be sanded easier afterwards.

Tetrion is powdered and is as easy to sand as easifil.
