Product Description

The 3M COMPANY CC-8-DT is a high-strength, color-changing spackling compound designed for repairing holes in walls and ceilings. It applies pink and dries white, giving the installer a clear visual cue that the compound is ready for sanding and painting. Each container holds 8 fluid ounces of material, making it suitable for small to medium patch jobs. Licensed tradespeople and skilled DIYers use this compound to restore wall surfaces before finishing work. At 4.44 pounds per unit, the package is manageable for single-hand application with a putty knife or similar tool.

This spackling compound is used in residential and light commercial interior finishing applications.
