Surface Preparation

Before applying, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, sound and free from dust or any contaminants that may affect adhesion. Lightly sanding the area will improve adhesion. For areas damaged by wet rot, remove as much rotten wood as possible and harden the remaining area with a suitable wood hardener which will give a solid base for filling. If you intend to overstain the wood once filled always choose the colour of filler that nearest matches the wood you are filling & not the stain you intend to use - filler may absorb some stains at different rates to the surrounding timber so always test to ensure suitability for application.

Application

Mix a golf ball volume of filler (approx 38mm diameter) and a 38mm strip of hardener into a homogeneous paste using the spatula provided. Press firmly into the surface requiring repair, leaving the filler slightly proud of the surface for sanding. Leave to dry for approximately 30 minutes before finishing by sanding/staining etc. Discard mixed material after 10 minutes, if not used and never put back into pack.

Store upright between 10 and 20oC in cool, dry conditions away from sources of ignition. Keep in enclosed container when not being used.
