Minwax42853000 Building_Material, 16 oz, Natural, 16 Ounce

I was looking for an exterior wood filler that accepts stain to use on my fence. I ordered and tested several products and found Minwax to be the best. It was easy to work with - it has a good consistency that fills holes and is easy to smooth and sand afterwards. Other products were too soupy or grainy. Afterwards I used a Behr water-based stain on the filler and it blended in very, very well. I had tried making my own filler using sawdust, clear wood glue, and some stain, but it didn't work as well. I will continue to use Minwax for future filler needs, especially when I need a stain.

Not amazing but not bad either. Overall decent 👍🏻

I did my whole living room floor. Have an old wood and whoever nailed them didn’t have a system. They never covered the nails either. So I did. It’s rather light but I used magic maker. To color the correct color. Lot of work but it was fun

High quality wood filler that works well every time.Delivery and packaging were top notch.Highly recommend this product and seller!

The wood filler itself is great, but the container it comes in is not air tight, so even when I carefully kept the cap on at all times and even put the whole thing in a ziplock, the wood filler gradually started to dry within a month. I do recommend buying it, but pour the whole thing in a better container to store it properly

Came quickly and filled nail holes on wood trim interior

I've been using for decades. No other product compares. It has a consistency that seems "crumbly" not smooth like peanut butter. Don't be discouraged, this is how wood filler is supposed to be.Push it deep into the hole/crack/gouge/defect etc. so that it can come in full contact with all the wood you're filling so it will form and stick onto the wood. I frequently use my finger on deep hole to make sure it comes in full contact. Then I apply some more filler with a flexible blade puddy knife slightly higher than the surface. This way you'll be able to sand flush down to the surface of the wood. Sand gently letting the sandpaper do the work, pressing harder won't be any faster but most likely remove too much material and you'll end up with a dimple below the surface. Run your hand over the area as you are sanding, you'll feel when it is flush and smooth. You may get some crumbs when applying this is normal. I aways wipe those off and use a fresh batch for the next fill unless it is small like nail holes. In time you will get the hang of using the right amount to do the job. To do this I only scoop out the amount I'm going to use on the corner of my putty knife, not across the blade. this way you can look at the hole and match how much you'll need.I'm not affilated with Minwax, this is just my experience of many many years doing jobs around the house big and small from filling countersunk screw holses on outdoor furniture to replacing damage and holes on house siding.
