Homax Nail Hole Patch, 5 oz, Spackling

As a DIYer, this has been an invaluable tool for my home projects. This 5 oz spackling is incredibly easy to use, making it perfect for quick fixes around the house. The consistency is smooth, allowing for effortless application and a seamless finish. It fills nail holes and small imperfections effectively, drying quickly and blending well with the surrounding surface. One of the things I appreciate most is how little sanding is required. Once it dries, a light sanding is all that's needed to achieve a perfectly smooth surface, ready for painting. The convenience of having a ready-to-use spackling compound in a manageable size is a major plus for any DIY enthusiast. The only minor downside is that it may not be suitable for larger repairs or deeper holes, but for small nail holes and minor blemishes, it works brilliantly. This is a fantastic product for anyone looking to tackle small repairs with ease. Its user-friendly application and excellent results make it a must-have for any DIYer’s toolkit. Highly recommended for its effectiveness and convenience.

I rotate wall art like most people rearrange throw pillows, so I’m constantly punching and patching holes. I keep two fillers on hand—3M High Strength for the big, obvious ones, and this Homax tube for smaller, clean-up jobs. For subtle punctures, Homax wins. I’ve had two friends look at patched areas without knowing which was which—both pointed to this one as the better end result. I can't say I disagree with them. — Curated by Jaded John | #OrderlyCleanDesign

The only problem with product, there was a split on bottom of tube. I didn't notice split until I started to dispense product. I didn't want the hassle to return defective tube, so I just used bottom split to push product out. Worked good, except for defect.

I had lots of small holes in the walls from picture hooks needed filling as I’m moving out of a rented apartment. This is one of the easiest fillers I’ve used and great value. Very easy to apply, I skimmed it across using an old credit card which gives a better, smoother finish than using a spatular tool. I also filled in some cracks in the windowsill which were there before I moved in but this is such a great product I enjoyed using it. It dries quickly, I gave it a very light sand with a very fine grain sandpaper, cleaned the wall, and blended paint over when dry. You can’t see where any of the hooks were. Excellent product, great price. Keep the lid on it or it’ll dry out…same as all fillers do if not kept airtight. Highly recommended.

The product is much too thick to flow through the foam applicator as the directions suggest. I had to squeeze a glob of it out and apply it with my fingers. It works effectively once applied, however, the cap doesn't screw back on, so I'm guessing product will dry out in storage and be useless going forward.

This product is a must-have for renters who see themselves as budding interior decorators. If you love hanging art and pictures to brighten your walls, keeping a tube of this hole patch spackling on hand is always a smart idea.

I didn't like that it was super hard, and that the bottom burst open as I was squeezing the container to get the product out.. But other than that it works perfectlyly! It was an easy use, definitely will purchase again if needed.

I bought this spackle in a tube because the square tubs that you buy only last for about six months. You possibly get to use them 2 maybe 3 times. So I thought having spackle in a tube would be the answer, but alas… This stuff is just as bad. The first time I used it it was nice and creamy - came out just the right consistency. After use IPut the top on securely, which has an inner protrusion that inserts into the hole to keep the hole clean. Hah. Upon the second use about three months later, andEven though I cleaned out the opening thoroughly with several tools, and the hole was completely clear of anything to stop up the flow, this stuff had still dried to such a consistency that it would not come out the hole without using pliers to squeeze it out I would never buy this product

Great product. Had to send first back as it was dry. They sent me another with no charge.

Easy to use and does the job.

Great product, ever so slightly off white colour, dries quickly. But the tube that is fuse sealed on the bottom split open, making the contents ooze out, and the tube then dried out. Too bad for the packaging defect, too late to return.

Seemed like a good idea, but what this is, is a spongy type section around the hole where the spackling is squeezed out and that sponge came off after like 2 uses. It's really hard to get the product out of the tube. I finally had to cut the tube open with a razor blade to get some spackling out. This is a crappy product and NOT worth any money. I put packaging tape back over the razor cut with hopes I can cut it again in another place next time I need a bit to patch a hole.

I found this product to be fairly dry and very difficult to squeeze out of the tube and work with. I also did not find the sponge helpful. I tried a different product and it was much better with no issues.
