There are several manufacturers of spackel that have similar products in their range. The advantage is that you don't have to buy and carry water, and this type of spackel doesn't shrink much or at all, but you can compensate for that, and if you're skilled, one application is enough for board joints. For home use, pre-mixed spackel is usually sufficient; you often have time to wait for it to dry, and most people aren't very skilled at applying spackel

For home use, ready-mixed putty is quite sufficient; most people usually have time to wait for drying, and most are not very skilled at puttying![]()
