FAQs
Can I use this filler outdoors?
Yes, it is suitable for exterior wood, but ensure the repair is finished with paint or varnish to protect the filler from direct weather exposure.
How deep can I fill a hole with this product?
You should not exceed a maximum thickness of 6mm for a single application; use multiple layers if the repair is deeper.
Can I paint over the filler immediately?
No, you must wait until the filler is fully set and has been sanded smooth before applying any paint, varnish, or stain.
Does this filler work on wood rot?
You must remove all rotten wood and treat the area before filling; the filler is for repairs and not for consolidating decayed material.
How do I store the filler to keep it fresh?
Always seal the lid tightly after each use to prevent air from entering and drying out the product.
Troubleshooting
Filler is shrinking or cracking after drying
The application layer likely exceeded 6mm. Apply in multiple thinner layers for deep repairs, allowing time for each to set.
Filler is not adhering to the wood surface
Ensure the surface was completely clean, dry, and free of dust or oily residue before application.
Surface remains soft or tacky after a long period
Ensure the humidity in the room is not too high and the application thickness does not exceed the recommended 6mm limit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your project, ensure the target area is completely clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or loose particles. If the wood has suffered from moisture damage, you must dig out all rotten material to reach solid, healthy wood, as the filler cannot provide a permanent fix over decaying matter. When applying, use a suitable filling knife to push the product into the repair, overfilling slightly to account for minor shrinkage during the drying process. After the filler has set, sand the area with fine-grit sandpaper until flush with the surrounding surface. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the remaining filler from drying out.
