Does it dry out fast ? If you open it for small projects over a year?

I found this stuff has very little strength at all. Not only can you sand it, it rubs off with barely any force. If I had to do the same jobs again I'd probably try bondo.

Yes, it'll dry out. You're better off getting the kind you mix to activate. Not as user friendly but doesn't dry out the same.

I take a piece of cling wrap and put it against the product before i seal it up and it seems like it keeps all the moisture intact.

That is good tip and I do recommend the same for spackle and putty at times but I do like this stuff. I find it has nice working consistency to work with,and hard when dry yet fairly easy to sand. If it does dry up, even completely, just add water it will come back. I had some squeeze tubes that must have been pushing fifteen years old. I cut them open put what was in them in a tub like this comes in and added little water. Couple of hours later mixed it was good and added more water to get the consistency I like and it was as good as new.

You can also just add some water and it will come back even if almost completely dried up.Let it sit for bit and then you can mix and mash it a bit and it will be good as new. Depending on what I am doing I adjust how wet I like it. I think it comes bit to dry when new and often add water immediately to make it work easier and more like spackle. It seems to stick and grip better when wetter also.

Not sure if it applies to this stuff, but normal spackle is made from gypsum plaster which is organic matter which means it can (and does) get moldy. I've had this happen so I have gone to the powder, or "mix to activate" as you say. Unless you have a really big job or ongoing need, best not to get the premixed IMO.

Correct, and an additional point is that when you go with dry versions there tends to be chemical activation for drying.
With drywall mud you'll notice there are different dry times. That's the chemicals helping it dry (sometimes you can feel the heat from it). With standard mud, the drying is only the water evaporating. That's why it shrinks when it dries, part of the volume is evaporating away. With the fast mud it doesn't shrink as much and dries harder.

Back to this product, while not a 1:1 comparison some of the same applies. I don't think it molds like drywall mud, but the chemical mix kind doesn't shrink as much and dries harder.

I guess I should take back my initial comment because I said "you're better off" which isn't necessarily true. It's based on need and project. For instance, this stuff would work great for nail hole filling and sanding (so does drywall mud BTW). But when I think of wood filler I'm thinking more of repair where it is damaged or starting to rot. In those cases the mix kind is a better choice.
