FAQs

How long does Wonderfill take to dry?

Drying time depends on application thickness and environmental conditions. Generally, allow several hours, or overnight for thicker applications, before sanding.

Can I use Wonderfill on plastic models?

Yes, Wonderfill can be used on plastic models as long as the surface is prepared properly.

What kind of sandpaper should I use?

Use fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220 grit or higher) for sanding Wonderfill to achieve a smooth finish.

Can I paint directly over Wonderfill?

Troubleshooting

Wonderfill is not drying properly.

Ensure the application is thin and the environment has adequate ventilation. Allow more drying time, especially in humid conditions.

Difficulty sanding Wonderfill.

Ensure the Wonderfill is completely dry before sanding. Use fine-grit sandpaper for best results.
