Troubleshooting

Filler is too thick or difficult to apply.

Add a small amount of water to the mix, a little at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.

Filler is cracking after drying.

Ensure that the filler is applied in thin layers. Avoid applying too much filler at once. Also, make sure the surface is properly prepared before application.

Filler is not adhering to the surface.

Clean the surface thoroughly to remove any dust, grease, or loose particles.

Filler is drying too quickly.

Work in a cooler environment. Avoid direct sunlight or drafts while working. Prepare smaller batches to work with.

Sanding is difficult or producing a rough finish.

Use the correct grade of sandpaper (usually medium or fine grit) and sand gently. Allow the filler to dry completely before sanding.
