Best sandable interior filler for small jobs?

[Participant]

Hi all

Can't find a recent thread on this but what interior sandable fillers are people using nowadays for small patch repair jobs?

I have a bathroom with a few small holes, ripped plasterboard, etc. and need a good product to patch it up with.

I've previously used Gyproc Easifill powder in various set times, but find that it slumps and takes a long time to dry when it's anything more than a very thin layer.

I see that Tourpret Interior Filler is sold at my local Screwfix; is this considered any good? Says it won't slump, grin, flash, crack, etc.

Extremely quick drying time is not that important.

They all take a longer time to dry in thicker layers. Easifill 60 is the best in my experience and I've used most of them. If it slumps you're mixing it wrong.

That's just not true; I'm mixing as per instructions using water and weight measurements and with a paddle mixer at low speed. At higher thicknesses, it slumps.

Thanks all. I got some Tourpret quick dry powder from Screwfix today so will give that a try and see how it compares to the Easifill I've already got.
