Rustins Wood Filler 500g

Rustins Wood Filler is a high-performance, water-based filler designed to repair holes, cracks, and imperfections in all types of wood. Formulated as a thick paste, it is easy to apply and can be thinned with water for different applications. Once dry, it forms a smooth, hard surface that can be sanded, painted, stained, or varnished to blend seamlessly with the surrounding wood.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Ready-to-Use Thick Paste:
  Easy to apply straight from the tub, or dilute with water for a smoother, thinner consistency as required.

  Maintains its shape and volume when drying, eliminating the need for repeated applications.
• Excellent Adhesion:
  Bonds strongly to wood, filling gaps, cracks, and holes for a durable repair.
• Versatile Finishing:
  Once dry, the filler can be sanded smooth and finished with paint, stain, varnish, or wax for a flawless result.
• Multi-Purpose Use:
  Suitable for interior and exterior woodwork (must be sealed with an appropriate topcoat when used outside).
• Eco-Friendly Water-Based Formula:
  Low odour and easy to clean up with water.
