We were using regular Dap spackling paste above our kitchen cabinets which turned out awesome but then ran out after getting to our backsplash area below the cabinets so my husband told me to just use some Dap drydex that he already had (the “goes on pink and dries white” kind) but after drying for days it still had a pink tinge in the majority of the cracks even though the bricks dried white 🙁 Scraped most of it out and redid it with the regular stuff which looked good until it dried and the light pink showed back up in some spots, though a lot lighter than it was before. Can’t figure out why it showed back up but gonna try to scrape and redo it one more time lol.

Oh no, what kind of spackle did you use? When mine turned pink I had to use a metal spatula to scrap out the majority of it, and then I had to start again. I am sorry that it is happening to you. I didn’t have any problems after I switched spackles.
