One Part Wood Filler
Metolux 1 Part Wood Filler is a pre-coloured one part high strength polyester wood filler supplied in a handy pack size. Used for the filling and repair of small pinholes and cracks below 5mm depth. Particularly suited to flat face-up applications and for materials such as MDF and chipboard. Fast drying in the normal atmosphere.
Preparation –
Prior to application, all surfaces should be clean, dry, sound and free from oil or grease. On old timber, any rotten or weak areas should be cut back to solid timber. Smooth areas should be slightly abraded to ensure a good key is obtained.
Mixing –
This product can be used straight from the container without any mixing. After a long period of storage, a small amount of liquid may form on the surface of the material, this can easily be remixed into the material with a small amount of stirring without any loss of performance.
Application –
Apply the product using a putty knife, spatula or similar direct to the area of timber to be repaired. Shape the product as required with a spreader or flat former. Leave enough excess proud of the surface to allow for sanding. Allow to cure before finishing. It is important that the total surface of the repair is fully sanded to ensure that the stain or finish can fully penetrate. Certain timbers are highly absorbent which may result in the filler being more noticeable. It is recommended that trials are conducted on an inconspicuous area prior to full scale production to ensure suitability.
Typical Gel Time –
The typical gelling time is around 30 minutes at 15 degrees temperature and is to full strength after just 2 hours. The ambient temperature will all affect gelling times, and the product should not be used below -5 degrees.
