Tips

Helpful Tips

Prep the surface

Surface should be clean, dry & free of dirt, oil & loose material. De-gloss if necessary.

Overfill and sand

Overfill the repair slightly when applying the wood filler so you can sand it down to a smooth, flat finish when dry.

Allow proper dry time

Allow to dry approximately 2-6 hours shallow repairs and 36 hours for deeper fills. Plastic Wood-X will change from pink to natural when dry.

Tip for exterior use

Plastic Wood All Purpose and Plastic Wood-X can be used for both interior and exterior wood repairs. Make sure to paint or coat exterior wood repairs for long-term durability.

Use masking tape

Apply masking tape around damage before filling to keep a clean surface around the repair and limit sanding afterwards.

Layer when necessary

For gouges and damage deeper than 1/4", apply wood filler in layers and let each layer dry before applying the next.
