Its primary benefit is the quick 1-hour working time, allowing for efficient project completion without compromising on a smooth, sandable finish.

Troubleshooting
Filler cracks or shrinks
Ensure the application depth does not exceed recommended limits. For larger gaps, apply in multiple layers, allowing each to dry. Check ambient temperature and humidity are within the recommended range.
Poor adhesion to surface
Verify the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose paint. For old painted surfaces, ensure the paint is sound and well-adhered before application. No priming is required on suitable surfaces.
Filler is difficult to sand
Allow the filler to dry completely before attempting to sand. If it's still difficult, ensure you are using appropriate sandpaper grit. The filler should be easy to sand once fully cured.
Filler remains soft after 24 hours
This may occur in very cold or humid conditions. Ensure the application temperature and humidity are within the specified range (+8°C to +35°C, <70% RH). Allow more drying time if conditions are suboptimal.
