FAQs

What is the working time of Tetrion Powerfil 2K Filler?

The filler sets in minutes, meaning you have a very short working time, typically around 5-10 minutes depending on ambient temperature and humidity. Mix only the amount you can use within this period.

Can I use this filler for exterior projects?

Yes, this filler is specifically designed for heavy-duty jobs and outdoor projects due to its tough, durable finish.

How do I clean up after using the filler?

Clean all tools and equipment immediately after use with warm water. Once the filler has cured, it is very difficult to remove.

Can I paint over the cured filler?

Yes, the cured filler is easily painted. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before applying paint.

What materials can this filler be used on?

It is suitable for filling metals, wood, stone, and most plastics. Always test on an inconspicuous area first for plastics.

How should I store the filler?

Store the filler and hardener in their original, tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Is the spreader included in the kit always hardened steel?

The kit includes a filler spreader with a hardened and tempered steel blade, ideal for filling uneven and cracked areas.

Troubleshooting

Filler does not harden or remains soft

Ensure the correct ratio of filler to hardener was used. Re-mix thoroughly, ensuring uniform color. Check that the hardener has not expired or been contaminated.

Filler is difficult to spread smoothly

Ensure the surface is properly prepared and free of contaminants. The working time is short; mix only what you can apply quickly. For larger areas, consider a slower-setting filler.

Cracks appear after curing

This may be due to excessive shrinkage, often caused by applying too thick a layer in one go or poor adhesion. For deep fills, apply in layers, allowing each to partially cure before adding the next.

Poor adhesion to the surface

Surface was not adequately cleaned, dried, or prepared. Ensure all grease, dirt, and loose material are removed, and the surface is slightly abraded for better grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Before applying, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, and loose material. Sand lightly if necessary to create a good key for adhesion.

Mixing: Accurately measure and mix the two components (filler and hardener) according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically a 1:1 ratio by volume. Mix thoroughly on the provided dish until a uniform color is achieved. Do not mix more than you can use within the working pot life.

Application: Apply the mixed filler using the provided spreader, pressing firmly into the damaged area. Smooth the surface as desired.

Curing: Allow the filler to cure completely, which usually takes a few minutes. Refer to packaging for specific cure times.

Compatibility: Suitable for use on metals, wood, stone, and most plastics. Test on a small, inconspicuous area of plastic first if unsure.

Care: Store the filler and hardener in a cool, dry place, tightly sealed. Clean tools immediately after use with warm water.
