FAQs

Can this filler be used on exterior timber?

Yes, it is suitable for both interior and exterior timber repairs on minor imperfections.

How long does it take to dry?

The drying time can vary depending on application thickness and ambient conditions, but it is designed to be quick-drying. Allow sufficient time for it to be completely dry before sanding or painting.

Can I paint over the filler?

Yes, once the filler is completely dry, you can paint or varnish over it. It is compatible with most Rustins paints and varnishes.

What is the best way to apply the filler?

Apply directly from the container using a filling knife or spatula, pressing firmly into the defect. Smooth off the excess slightly overfilling to allow for sanding.

How should I clean my tools after use?

Clean tools immediately after use with water.

What if the filler doesn't match my wood colour?

This filler is white and designed to be painted over. If you need a coloured filler, Rustins offers other wood filler variants in different colours like Mahogany, Oak, Teak, and Natural.

Can this filler be used for large gaps or structural repairs?

No, this filler is intended for general and minor repairs such as nail holes, dents, and small cracks. It is not suitable for large gaps or structural repairs.

Troubleshooting

Filler shrinks or cracks after drying.

This can happen if applied too thickly in one go. For deeper holes, apply filler in thin layers, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next. Ensure the base surface is sound and not de-laminating.

Filler is difficult to sand.

Ensure the filler is completely dry before attempting to sand. If it remains tacky, it may not have cured properly or the ambient temperature might be too low. Allow more drying time.

Poor adhesion to the wood.

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure the wood is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or wax before application. Lightly sanding the surface to be filled can also improve adhesion.
