FAQs

Can I use this on external walls?

Yes, but it must be sealed with paint or varnish immediately after it has dried to protect it from the elements.

Can I drive screws into this filler?

Yes, once the filler has fully cured and hardened, it is strong enough to accept nails and screws.

Does the filler shrink when it dries?

No, it is specially formulated to be non-shrinking, maintaining its volume for a flat, even repair.

What is the best way to mix the powder?

Use clean water and a mixing tool to combine the powder slowly until you achieve a consistent, smooth paste.

Is it safe for use on wood?

Yes, it is suitable for repairing wood surfaces, particularly around door frames and skirting boards.

How long does it take to set?

Setting times vary depending on the depth of the repair and environmental conditions, but it is typically ready for sanding once hard to the touch.

Troubleshooting

Filler is too runny or thin

Add small amounts of powder to the mixture until the desired thick, paste-like consistency is achieved.

Filler is cracking while drying

Ensure the depth of the hole does not exceed manufacturer limits for a single application; for very deep holes, apply in layers, allowing each to dry.

Difficult to sand

Ensure the filler is completely cured before sanding; if still slightly damp, it will clog sandpaper rather than smooth out.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Does not shrink during the curing process
  • Excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates
  • Can be sanded to a smooth, professional finish
  • Accepts nails and screws once fully set
  • Simple to mix and apply

Cons

  • Requires manual mixing of powder and water
  • Outdoor use strictly requires sealing with paint or varnish
  • Not suitable for areas with constant water exposure

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare the filler, mix the powder with clean water in a container until you achieve the desired consistency—usually a smooth paste. Always mix only what you intend to use within the working time. Ensure the surface being repaired is clean, dry, and free from loose debris before application. For exterior use, the filler must be allowed to dry completely and then immediately sealed with an exterior-grade paint or varnish to prevent moisture penetration. Store the remaining powder in a cool, dry place to prevent clumping.
