This article was last updated on August 7th, 2021 at 2:35 am Best wood fillers from my experience in the last twenty years Unlike some wood fillers, it can fill holes to any depth as long as you take it easy, filling half a centimetre at a time and waiting for each layer to dry before adding the next one. Make sure you prepare your surfaces well. Never fill directly over rot (whatever wood filler you use). You’ll need to use a chisel to remove rot and decay. Then use a wood wood preservative like Cuprinol 5 star to ensure you’ve killed any fungi and bacteria. From here you can use the Ronseal wood hardener as the formulas work and bond well together. You’ll want a throw away brush as the hardener does not clean out of brushes well – so don’t use a decent brush for this. Do commercial 2-part wood-fillers work any better than DIY ones? I had extensive rot in a window-cill, which I filled with 2-part wood-filler some 40 years ago. It looked immaculate when I’d finished – but within a year, the filler had separated from the remaining timber, and I had to dig it out.It doesn’t matter whether you’re filling a rotten window frame or the base of your shed, using the right wood filler will invariably improve the effective length of the repair. This also relies on using the right rot wood preservatives as well as stabilisers and wood hardeners. With a whole myriad of resins, polyester based resins, well known brands, and random fillers you may never have heard of, it’ll pay to read through my review, I have been using any included in this review for at least twenty years. A year ago, I found a long strip of rot running parallel to the edge of another cill. I dug it out, and this time tried Ronseal High Performance 2- part filler. I added some small stainless-steel screws to provide additional keys for the filler. Kedel's British recycled plastic wood planks are designed as an eco-friendly replacement for traditional building materials. As well as being environmentally friendly, it has a more realistic wood-like appearance and feel than previous attempts at producing synthetic wood products, yet it retains all the advantages of plastic. No rot, no insects, no mould and no moisture retention. An ideal no maintenance product. Our recycled plastic building products are perfect for use in construction projects and DIY. The main advantage over traditional materials is that recycled plastic wood planks need virtually no maintenance. Recycled plastic can easily replace wood, concrete or even metal, and use of these innovative products significantly reduces the carbon footprint of large construction projects. There are so many variables that is impossible to offer a definitive solution. Much depends on the state and type of timber affected and what works perfectly in one situation may fail hopelessly in another.

Once it’s hard (normally takes an hour or two in good warm weather) then you can begin to apply your filler. As mentioned above this doesn’t take long to set at all. Once set. You can sand smooth with a 60 to 120 grit. Once painted it’ll look great. Here’s some examples of repairs I do with Ronseal filler. Granted I also splice timber as well if there are big gaps but you can get the gist of how great this product will leave joinery and wood if you work right: I re-did it with Dulux Weathershield Flexible filler, and whilst that wasn’t nearly as easy to work with, it is still completely intact 40 years later.

Ronseal High Performance Wood Filler is a unique two-part product that delivers incredibly tough, strong and durable repairs to more or less any kind of interior or exterior wood. I treated the remaining timber with wood preservative before filling, and although I left it for some time to soak in, it may also be that that impairs adhesion between the timber and the filler. Dow
