Troubleshooting

Filler is not setting properly.

Ensure the correct water-to-powder ratio is used. Make sure the application is in the temperature range and not in wet conditions.

Filler is shrinking after application.

Avoid excessive water when mixing and apply in layers if the repair is deep (over 10mm).

Difficulty sanding the filler.

Allow the filler to fully cure (approximately 2 hours) before sanding.

Filler not adhering to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose materials. Prime any metals before filling.

Paint not adhering to the filled area.

Ensure the filler is completely dry (at least 24 hours) before painting. Prime the filler before applying water-based paint.
