Everbuild 2-Part High Performance Wood Filler – Fast Drying – Weatherproof – Easy to Mix and Apply – Redwood – 500g

I have used this 2 part high performance wood filler before. It works very well and is easy to mix and when dry can be sanded.

very impressed, sets like rock after a very short time, you will need a power sander to sand it down otherwise it will take hours by hand

WARNING - DO NOT USE ON A WARM DAY! SHORT STORY: PROS: The 2 Part High Performance Wood Filler does set very hard, and makes a good, waterproof repair. So hard, in fact, that I had to drill pilot holes in those repaired areas, to get the decking clamp self-tapping screws into it. CONS: Very expensive, for the amount you get. It sets ridiculously fast, which makes it difficult to work with. If EverBuild could slow down the setting time, so that you have at least five minutes to complete the repair, it would be a good and useable product. Due to to fast curing time, it is very difficult to remove the filler from tools and your hands. FYI: I always use Methylated Spirits, which removes an amazing amount of different products, including permanent marker ink. LONG STORY: I normally find EverBuild products to be very good, and value for money. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for their 2 Part High Performance Wood Filler, because you don't get very much for your money. The first time that I tried to use it, the ambient temperature was 21°C, and it began to harden, in less than a minute. Even at 18-19°C, it still hardens ridiculously quickly. The 150mm x 50mm wooden beams on my raised decking platform that I was repairing, extend out over my 6m x 5m x 1.4m fish pond, and it would have been very difficult to remove the the outer double beams, c/w composite decking plank facings, and LED lighting that I had installed, to replace them. Consequently, I was forced to attempt an in-situ repair. I'm not sure why this individual timber rotted, when the adjacent ones didn't. C'est la vie. The EverBuild Wood Hardener that I used prior to the wood filler, didn't really harden the wood, any better than the Barrettine Wood Preserver that I used to treat wooden timbers, and it's much more expensive per litre. Due to this disappointing and expensive experience, I am now looking for alternative replacement products.

God quality filler sets in around 10 mins . Good for repair of roten wood , it is hard though and so ensure you have some high grit paper to srat off the rubbing down .

After a recommendation from a good friend, I use this product to fill the joints, cracks and fissures in the table top I made, as shown in the photos. It sets really quickly, so don't mix too much at once or it will be rock hard before you've had time to spread it, but it's done a good job and was easy to sand within about 20 minutes of application.

Best two part filler ever , you have to be quick as it sets very soon after mixing !

Firstly, the good news. This filler is easy to use, sets very quickly - about 30 minutes, and can then be sanded, painted, drilled or stained. Now for the bad. It is very smelly, you need to work in a well-ventilated area. also, mixing the glue and hardener is a bit tricky. They say the ratio is something like a pea-sized bit of hardener compared to a golf ball-sized bit of filler. Who can guess that? I just use a large dollop of filler and add a small bit of hardener on top (I always buy extra hardener just to make sure I have enough). Another drawback is that you have no idea how thoroughly the filler and hardener are mixed. Nevertheless, I wouldn't be without this. It always sets hard, so I must be doing something right. I have even used it as glue because once set, it won't shrink or crack. All in all, this is expensive but worth it.

Easy to work with and sets really hard but can be sanded down to blend in really well. Need to work quickly as it sets off rapid, make up small batches.
