The present invention provides dry mix compositions and dry compositions of calcium methacrylate salt containing multistage acrylic copolymer RDP and dry anionic associative thickeners for use in the dry mix compositions so that when wet to make cement, mortar or trowellable compositions for use in Exterior Insulation Finishing Systems (EIFS), the compositions exhibit improved workability in both cementitious and non-cementitious dry mixes.
