"My husband's not allowed to renovate anything in our home because in the end it's
me who has to deal with the clean up."
With every home renovation or new construction project, whether by a professional or a weekend
do-it-yourselfer, comes the inevitable mess from sanding drywall.
But now, thanks to a new all-purpose joint compound, or mud, there is an innovative way
to significantly reduce airborne drywall dust.
The new mud binds fine residue together during sanding to create heavy dust. Instead of clouding
the air it falls straight to the floor, dramatically reducing the amount of dust in the air.
As a result, the work goes quicker and cleans up faster.
"This new dust control, it falls straight to the ground. It's easier to clean up and
it doesn't mess up the rest of your house."
"I just am plainly seeing dust control written on the side of the bucket. I've gotten compliments
in the past."
SHEETROCK Brand Dust Control Joint Compound is available at home improvement retailers,
drywall specialty retailers, lumber yards and paint and decorating distributors.
