Surface preparation
The surface must be clean, free from all loose materials, dust, dirt, oil and any other contaminants. When working with woods that are oily or high in tannic acid, wipe the surfaces with acetone before application. If surface is very dry, dampen with water prior to product application.
Directions for use
Apply with a putty knife or paint scraper by pasting over the hole or crack.
For deep holes apply ALCOLIN WOODFILLER in several layers, allowing each layer to dry between applications.
For grain filling applications, thin with water to a creamy consistency and apply.
Remove any excess ALCOLIN WOODFILLER immediately.
Allow to dry before sanding or over-coating – from few minutes for thin applications to a few hours for deep applications. To speed up drying time, a hairdryer can be used over the filled surface.
Larger applications may shrink and crack on drying. Re-apply ALCOLIN WOODFILLER.
Notes

If slight separation is observed, mix thoroughly before using.
ALCOLIN WOODFILLER will absorb stain slightly different from wood, which may cause colour variation.
To obtain different colours, mix the different woodfiller colours together. Alternatively, mix with a little universal paint tint.
