This guide is for users of Silverhook Carbon Fibre Black Structural Filler (600ml), a heavy-duty filler designed for use on metals and plastics. The primary benefit is its high strength and elasticity, thanks to the inclusion of carbon fibers. However, keep in mind its quick hardening time requires careful and timely application.

Yes, once the filler has fully cured and been sanded smooth, it can be painted. Use a suitable primer before applying paint for the best results.
Store the filler in a cool, dry place and keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.
Always work in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and eye protection.
Start with a coarser grit sandpaper (e.g., 80-grit) for the initial shaping and then use finer grits (e.g., 180-320 grit) for a smooth finish.
Ensure the hardener was mixed in the correct ratio. Check the expiration date. The product may be old. Make sure the ambient temperature is within the recommended range.
Allow the filler to fully cure before sanding. Use appropriate sandpaper grit (start with a coarser grit and move to a finer grit). Apply even pressure while sanding.
Apply the filler in thin layers. Avoid applying the filler in very thick layers, as this can lead to shrinkage. Make sure the surface is properly prepared and cleaned.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Roughen the surface with sandpaper before applying the filler for better adhesion. Use the appropriate primer for the material.
