Have planked a boat and need to fill some areas. Is this a special product

or just normal filler from a hardware store. Any suggestions of a good product

Hi Sapphire

There are any number of wood fillers around

Like the Timbermate  water based range

But I prefer to use a product like Polyfilla Skim Coat which

 is meant for plastering but spreads easily and drys hard

G'day Sapphire,

 

Due to some health issues I need to use a wood filler that is low in fumes and toxicity. I have found Timbermate meets my requirements, it sands well and is available at Bunnings. The only thing I have found is that low temperature does affect the hardening of the product, nothing a heat gun will not fix. Also do not apply too thick.

 

 I suppose I should not be in the garage working on my models when a frost is coming.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Mark.
