FAQs

Can I use this filler on metal surfaces?

The Bartoline All Purpose Ready Mix Filler is designed for plaster, plasterboard, brick, wood, and stone. It is not specifically formulated for metal surfaces.

How long does the filler take to dry?

Drying time varies depending on the depth of the fill, temperature, and humidity. Generally, it should be fully set before sanding.

Is this filler waterproof once dry?

The filler itself is not waterproof. For outdoor use, it must be sealed with an oil-based paint to protect it from water and rain.

Can I paint over the filler?

Yes, once the filler has fully dried and been sanded smooth, it can be painted over.

What is the maximum thickness I can apply in one go?

You can apply layers up to 6mm thick. For deeper repairs, apply in multiple layers, allowing each to set before applying the next.

How should I store the product?

Store in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is firmly replaced after use. Protect the product from frost.

Do I need to mix the filler before use?

It is a ready-mixed filler. However, you may need to stir it gently before use if it has been stored for a while.

Troubleshooting

Filler is too stiff to apply

Gently stir the filler. If it's still too stiff, a very small amount of water might be added, but avoid making it too wet.

Filler shrinks significantly after drying

Apply the filler in thinner layers, no more than 6mm thick, allowing each layer to set before applying subsequent layers.

Filler remains soft after extended drying time

Ensure the filler was applied in a sufficiently thin layer and that the ambient temperature and humidity are suitable for drying. Avoid applying in very cold or damp conditions.

Sanding is difficult

Allow the filler to dry completely before attempting to sand. Use a fine-grit sandpaper for best results.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the surface to be filled is clean, dry, and free from dust. Stir the filler gently if necessary before use. For larger areas, apply filler in layers no thicker than 6mm, allowing each layer to set before applying the next.
