Using mouldable wood filler

Before using mouldable wood filler, it is first important to prepare the surface material. This is because it should be dry, dust-free and grease-free. If necessary, clean it first with, for example, a wood cleaner. Then use a spatula or putty knife to apply the Wood filler in one or more layers, depending on the size of the Surface area to be filled. Remove wet residues as soon as possible with a dry cloth. Cured residues can be removed mechanically. After 10 hours the surface can be repainted.
