FAQs

What is the working time after mixing Bonda Woodfill?

The working time depends on the temperature, but it is designed to be rapid-hardening. Always refer to the product packaging for specific working times.

Can Bonda Woodfill be used outdoors?

While Bonda Woodfill provides a durable repair, its suitability for exterior use depends on the finishing applied over it. A good quality exterior paint or varnish should provide adequate protection.

How do I achieve a good color match with existing wood?

The 'Black - Ebony' color is a dark shade. For precise matching on lighter woods, you may need to tint the filler before application, or ensure it is completely covered by an opaque finish like paint.

What is the shelf life of Bonda Woodfill?

Unopened components typically have a good shelf life when stored correctly in a cool, dry place. Once opened, use within the recommended timeframe to maintain efficacy.

Can I use Bonda Woodfill on engineered wood or MDF?

Yes, Bonda Woodfill can be used on most wood-based materials, including engineered wood and MDF, provided the surface is clean and sound.

Is Bonda Woodfill waterproof once cured?

The filler itself is water-resistant once fully cured, but for continuous water exposure, it is best protected with a suitable waterproof finish.

Troubleshooting

Filler not hardening or hardening too slowly

Ensure the correct ratio of the two components was used and that they were mixed thoroughly. Check if the ambient temperature is within the recommended range for application.

Filler shrinks excessively after drying

For deep fills, apply in layers, allowing each layer to partially cure before adding the next. Ensure proper mixing to avoid air entrapment.

Poor adhesion to the wood surface

Verify that the wood surface was clean, dry, and free from any contaminants like oil, wax, or dust before application.

Difficulty sanding the hardened filler

Ensure the filler has fully cured before attempting to sand. If it's still too soft, the mixing ratio might have been incorrect. Try using a coarser grit sandpaper initially.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fast curing time speeds up projects.
  • Excellent adhesion to wood.
  • Can be sanded and machined easily.
  • Suitable for filling large voids and defects.
  • Accepts paint and varnish well for a seamless finish.

Cons

  • Requires precise mixing of two components.
  • Once mixed, it has a limited working time.
  • Color match may require additional tinting for some wood types.
  • May shrink slightly on very large fills if not applied in layers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose particles.
  2. Accurately measure and mix the two components of Bonda Woodfill according to the manufacturer's instructions (typically a specific ratio of filler to hardener).
  3. Mix thoroughly until a uniform color and consistency are achieved. Avoid over-mixing, which can reduce working time.
  4. Apply the mixed filler to the defect using a putty knife or appropriate tool, pressing it firmly into the void.
  5. Smooth the surface as much as possible during application.

Compatibility:

Bonda Woodfill is designed for use on most types of wood. It is compatible with most common wood finishes, including paints, varnishes, lacquers, and stains.

Care:

  • Store unused components in their original, tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Clean tools and application equipment immediately after use with appropriate solvents as recommended by the manufacturer, or while the filler is still wet.
