Troubleshooting

Filler is cracking after drying.

Ensure the filler is applied in thin layers and that the surface is properly prepared. Over application may cause cracking. Alternatively, the filler may have been mixed with too much water.

Filler is not adhering to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose material before application. Consider using a primer on particularly difficult surfaces.

Filler is too difficult to sand.

Allow the filler to dry completely before attempting to sand. Ensure you are using the correct grit sandpaper.
