Fitting and handling
Apply Metolux 1 Part Wood Filler directly from the tub using a filling knife or palette knife, pressing the product firmly into the defect and leaving it slightly proud of the surface. Allow to dry fully before sanding back flush with fine-grit abrasive paper - drying time will vary depending on depth of fill and ambient temperature. Keep the lid tightly closed after use and store in a cool, dry location away from frost to maintain the filler's workable consistency.
FAQ
Is Metolux 1 Part Wood Filler suitable for exterior use?
No - this product is formulated for interior use only. For outdoor repairs to timber, you would need a filler rated for exterior conditions. This product is best suited to indoor joinery, flooring and furniture work.
How long does Metolux 1 Part Wood Filler take to dry before sanding?
Drying time depends on the depth of the fill and the temperature of the room. Shallow fills in a warm interior may be ready to sand within 30 to 60 minutes, while deeper fills may need longer. Always check the filler is fully hard before sanding to avoid dragging.
Will the dark filler match my hardwood floor or dark-stained timber?
The dark tone is designed to blend with darker wood species and stained timbers, reducing the visibility of repairs without heavy finishing. Results will vary depending on the specific species and stain used, so testing on a small area or offcut first is always advisable.
