I’ve seen several videos about drywall and I noticed a few people say they are using “hot” mud. Are they heating it up before use?

Mud is a type of plaster used to finish walls and ceilings. It is made from a mixture of soil, clay, and water. The mud is then mixed with either fiberglass or paper to create a sticky paste that can be applied to drywall. Mud can also be mixed with paint to create textured effects on walls and ceilings.

There are two types of mud: hot mud and cold mud. Hot mud has been heated in order to make it easier to spread and apply. Cold mud has not been heated and is more difficult to work with.
