Check the Knauf or British Gypsum websites for full info.

The filler is called Joint Filler. You can buy it powdered or ready mixed. The powdered stuff leaves a slightly rough finish and you normally have to finish off with the ready mixed. The advantage of the powdered stuff is that it sets faster.

An alternative is to use artex which is also suitable (and cheaper!)
