Product Information

Full details

Metolux 1 Part Wood Filler is designed for woodworkers, carpenters, and DIY enthusiasts looking for a reliable solution to repair small imperfections in timber surfaces. Its primary benefit is providing a high-strength, pre-coloured polyester finish that cures rapidly to create a seamless repair for pinholes and cracks up to 5mm deep, though users should note it is optimized primarily for flat, face-up applications rather than deep structural repairs.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I paint over this filler?

Yes, once fully cured and sanded, the surface is compatible with most wood paints, stains, and varnishes.

Is this filler suitable for exterior use?

Metolux 1 Part Wood Filler is primarily formulated for interior timber repair. For external use, ensure the repair is fully sealed with a high-quality exterior finish.

How deep can I fill a crack?

This product is designed for repairs up to 5mm deep. Anything deeper should be built up in layers.

Can I use this on MDF?

Yes, this filler is specifically suited for MDF as well as chipboard and solid timber.

How do I remove excess filler?

Before it cures, excess can be wiped away with a solvent-dampened cloth. After it cures, it must be removed via sanding.

Troubleshooting

Filler curing too fast in the tin

Ensure the lid is pressed on tightly after every use and avoid exposing the product to direct sunlight or high heat.

Filler is shrinking after drying

The gap may have been deeper than 5mm. For deeper repairs, apply in thin layers, allowing each to cure before adding the next.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent adhesion to MDF and chipboard
  • Pre-coloured for immediate aesthetic blending
  • Durable polyester resin base resists shrinking
  • Quick drying time facilitates efficient workflow

Cons

  • Not suitable for deep structural repairs over 5mm
  • Limited to flat, face-up surface applications
  • Strong odor common with polyester resins requiring ventilation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free of loose fibers or dust. Use a putty knife or plastic applicator to press the filler firmly into the crack or pinhole, ensuring it is slightly proud of the surface to allow for later sanding. For care, keep the container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place to prevent the polyester from curing prematurely. Always work in a well-ventilated area due to the nature of polyester resins. Once the filler is cured, use fine-grit sandpaper (180-240 grit) to level the repair with the surrounding wood grain.
