ProForm Ultra Lite All Purpose Joint Compound

Product catalog summary
Description: ProForm® Ultra Lite All Purpose Joint Compound is a vinyl-based, ready-mix lightweight joint compound. It is up to 40% lighter than conventional joint compounds, making it easier to apply and sand, and reduces shrinkage by up to 33%.
Basic Uses: Designed for tape application, fastener spotting, and joint finishing of gypsum board. It can also repair cracks in plastered walls, texture surfaces, and laminate gypsum board to other surfaces.
Advantages: The compound is lightweight, easy to apply and sand, has excellent open time, superior bond with ProForm® paper joint tape, and low VOC content (<2g/L). It eliminates the need for multiple compound types on a job.
Limitations: Use sandpaper no coarser than 150 grit. Protect from freezing, extreme heat, and direct sunlight. Do not overthin or excessively mix with an electric drill.
Storage: Store away from extreme temperatures to avoid accelerated aging. The storage life is up to 9 months under good conditions.
Installation Recommendations: Mix lightly before use. Apply a thin layer over joints, embed tape, and cover with compound. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next. In cold weather, maintain a minimum temperature of 50°F (10°C) during joint finishing.
Decoration: Ensure surfaces are dry and dust-free before applying paint or wall coverings. Use a high-quality, flat latex primer.
Technical Data: Coverage varies with the number of cornerbeads and trims used. Drying times depend on temperature and humidity, with specific guidelines provided.
Availability: Available in Atlantic, Gulf, Northeast, and Southeast areas.
