The job is all done and you have 1/2 can of
joint compound left. What do you do with this compound? You
can reuse drywall joint compound (mud) at a later time if you store it
away properly. You simply need to scrape down the sides inside the
bucket good and wipe the inside down with a damp cloth. Get all the
compound to the bottom and level it out. Then, place a piece of
plastic over the top (as shown below) and seal the lid back on tightly and
use a permanent marker to label the bucket with the date. If you
don't clean off the inside surfaces, the mud will dry and the chunks will
fall into the compound, making it unusable.
Note that in the photo the sides are clean and the plastic will help the mud
to not dry out!
