FAQs

Can I use this filler on metal surfaces?

No, this filler is not suitable for use on plastics or metals.

How long until I can paint over the filler?

The filler can typically be overpainted in approximately 30 minutes, depending on ambient conditions.

Do I need to sand it after it dries?

Usually, no. It dries to a smooth, finished surface that often requires no sanding.

Can I use this outdoors?

Yes, it is suitable for exterior use, but it must be protected from rain until set and sealed with an oil-based paint.

What is the recommended storage temperature?

Store in a cool, dry place above 5°C and ensure it is kept away from frost.

Can this be used for structural bolt fixing?

No, this product is for filling cracks and surface imperfections only; it should not be used for structural fixing.

Troubleshooting

The filler is drying too slowly

Ensure the application thickness is not excessive; for very deep holes, apply in thinner layers, allowing each to set.

Filler is sagging during application

Check that the surface is clean and dry. Ensure you are not over-wetting the filler and verify that the ambient temperature is not too high, which can affect viscosity.

Cracking after drying

This may occur if the surface was damp or contaminated with dust. Clean the area thoroughly and ensure it is bone-dry before re-applying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before beginning, ensure the target surface is clean, dry, and free of loose dust or debris. The filler is compatible with most standard wall and ceiling substrates, including plaster and wood. Note that it is not compatible with metal or plastic components, nor should it be used for anchoring structural bolts. When storing the product, keep the container in a cool, dry environment where temperatures remain above 5°C. Avoid exposing the container to freezing conditions to maintain the consistency of the filler, and ensure the lid is tightly sealed after every use to prevent the product from drying out.
