Sheetrock brand dust control patch and repair compound is ideal to repair holes cracks and minor damage of interior drywall surfaces or ceilings. Laboratory testing shows that usg s joint compound with dust control will not exceed osha limits of respirable crystalline silica. Offering the industry s broadest selection of finishing solutions our high quality drywall compounds joint tapes beads and trims provide superior performance on every job every time. Easy to use drywall repair product that delivers professional quality results with less dust.
The sheetrock dust control system weighs up to 25 less than usg boral s conventional joint compounds making it easier to handle.

Independent industrial hygiene laboratory testing during sanding of sheetrock brand dust control joint compound has shown levels of total dust reduction and respirable crystalline silica below detectible limits in reference to osha s new silica rule. The clumps are heavy enough to drop to the floor rather than float into the air like regular powdery drywall sanding dust.
