FAQs

What is this hardener used for?

This Metolux Hardener is specifically designed to be mixed with Metolux 2 part Wood Fillers and 2 part Decor Filler to initiate and control the curing process, allowing the filler to harden effectively.

Can I use this hardener with any wood filler?

No, this hardener is formulated exclusively for use with Metolux 2 part Wood Fillers and Metolux 2 part Decor Filler. Using it with other products may result in improper curing or failure.

Is this hardener suitable for exterior use?

Yes, the Metolux Hardener is suitable for use in both interior and exterior applications when combined with the appropriate Metolux filler.

How much hardener should I use?

The exact amount of hardener depends on the specific Metolux filler product you are using. Always refer to the instructions provided on the packaging of your Metolux 2 part Wood Filler or Decor Filler for the correct mixing ratio.

What is the shelf life of the hardener?

When stored correctly in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place, the hardener should maintain its efficacy for an extended period. Check the product packaging for any specific expiry information.

Can I use the mixed filler and hardener for large repairs?

The working time of the mixed filler is limited. For large repairs, mix only the amount of filler and hardener that you can apply within the working time specified by the filler product instructions.

What safety precautions should I take?

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and eye protection, when handling the hardener and mixing fillers. Work in a well-ventilated area and avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Troubleshooting

Filler not hardening or setting too slowly

Ensure you have used the correct Metolux Hardener and checked the mixing ratio specified on the filler's packaging. Too little hardener will result in slow or incomplete curing.

Filler hardening too quickly

Verify that you are using the correct Metolux Hardener. While less common, using an incorrect or expired hardener could potentially alter curing times. Ensure you are working in a cool environment.

Filler becoming brittle or crumbly after hardening

This often indicates an incorrect mixing ratio. Double-check that you have used the recommended amount of hardener. Over-mixing can also sometimes lead to brittleness.
