FAQs

Can I use this filler for outdoor furniture?

Yes, but it is essential to seal the filled area with an oil-based paint or varnish after it has set and before exposing it to the elements. Do not use in areas that are permanently wet.

How long does it take for the filler to set?

Drying and setting times can vary depending on the thickness of the application and environmental conditions (temperature, humidity). Allow sufficient time for it to harden completely before sanding or finishing.

Can I stain this wood filler?

Yes, the filler can be stained once it has completely set and is ready for finishing.

What is the maximum thickness I can apply in one go?

For deep repairs, the maximum thickness for a single application is 6mm. For deeper areas, multiple layers are required, allowing each layer to set before applying the next.

Do I need to mix this filler?

No, this is a ready-mixed wood filler, meaning it is formulated for direct application without any mixing required.

What kind of surfaces can I use this on?

It is specially formulated for all types of wood repairs, including window frames, doors, skirting boards, and other wooden fixtures.

Troubleshooting

Filler is too hard to apply

Ensure the product has not been stored for too long or in extreme conditions. Stir gently if there are slight variations in consistency.

Filler is shrinking significantly after drying

This can happen if applied too thinly or if the depth limit of 6mm per layer was exceeded. Apply in multiple thinner layers for deeper repairs.

Filler is not adhering to the wood

Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose paint. Remove any unsound wood.

Difficulty sanding the filler

Allow the filler to set completely before attempting to sand. Use appropriate grit sandpaper for wood fillers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation:

  1. Ensure the surface to be filled is clean, dry, and free of dust.
  2. Remove any loose or rotten wood to create a solid base for the filler.
  3. If filling near metal fittings, consider priming them with an oil-based primer to prevent rust.

Application:

  1. If necessary, gently stir the filler before use.
  2. Press the filler firmly into the repair area using a putty knife or appropriate tool.
  3. For deep repairs, fill to a maximum thickness of 6mm per layer and allow each layer to set completely before applying the next.
  4. Apply slightly proud of the surrounding surface to allow for sanding.

Finishing:

  1. Once the filler is completely set, rub it down with sandpaper to achieve a smooth, flush finish.
  2. The filler can then be painted, stained, or varnished to match the surrounding woodwork.

Outdoor Use:

  1. For outdoor applications, the filled area must be sealed with an oil-based paint or varnish.
  2. Protect the filled area from rain and water until it has been properly sealed.

Care:

Store the filler in a cool, dry place, ensuring the lid is tightly sealed to maintain its consistency.
