what is a skim coat?

om...
I bought a tub of DAP spackling compound to use to smooth out an area of my
wall in the kitchen where I pried off some tile. The instruction say "do
not use for a skim coat". Why is that? Is it ok to use the stuff to level
out my wall?
Thanks,
Jeff
A skim coat is a thin coat across a wide area. Sounds like exactly what you
were planning on doing with the spackling.
You may want to return the spackling compound and get a 1 gallon pail of
sheetrock mud.
