Thank you for the demo! I have a vintage bed frame that has a small damaged area and I was trying to figure out how to do it. Wow, after watching your video, I realized that this is going to be easier than I thought! The bed frame is stained, not painted so the only thing I need to do is find a stain that is closest to the original color. That should be easy too since that brand of wood filler offers so many different colors. ☺

[@specialorder9379]

Excellent video! Thanks for posting it!

[@ArtByBritania]

Thank you. I have to use alot of this stuff on some wood gaps in my wall panels.

[@Marie-vx9fs]

TY for sharing this info. I want to use this material mixture for filling bowing in exterior window frames. Could you explain the difference between using caulk for wood cracks vs this wood putty mixture? I just think this matl is better for a number of reasons.

[@A10TOES]

Which is better to use for filling holes where carpenter Bees have made holes in my wood railing, this stuff or plain wood putty?

[@theurbanartist775]

Thanks for the demonstration bro! I bought this brand of filler tonight & was wondering how to use & mix it🤞🏼

[@FixThisHouse]

No problem 👍

[@larryburks592]

Wrapping our beams in Cedar. We have gaps like you do. Will use the same thing

[@sephiroth9930]

does this act like a cement for wood? I want to fix my wooden bed and I'm afraid if this will break? thanks

[@tymr.t3645]

Thank you so much for the 101 I have work to do 🤗👍

[@st8kout961]

There's a large wooden beam running across my front porch, with a lot of big splits in the wood. What is the max length/width I should try to fill? Does it need to be done in multiple layers or should I just stuff it in as deep as I can then smooth over the top? It's not really wood rot as much as just the wood drying and splitting from our super hot Vegas summers. The beam is mostly ornamental rather than structural, but I imagine that with the price of wood this size, replacing it would probably cost thousands of dollars. It's 5" thick, 10" tall, and about 12' wide.

[@jamesmcnaughton5092]

I don't believe you have to fill the whole dept of the crack use a foam backer rod and stuff in the crack that way you don't have to use as much wood filler

[@sduolcepoh9815]

Thank you

Thank you 🙏🏽!

Can you screw on to the filler area ??

[@annamartineau5034]

Do I need the hardener??

[@joshuawood6644]

Can you answer a question for me? I'm building a workshop, and I have areas where my pvc trim is fastened to wood trim. I want to seal the gaps between the two materials. Do you think this product would work in this case? Will it bond to the pvc? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as I can't seem to find any solid info on this issue..

[@jaybone4941]

Have you tried this or found something that worked? Minwax wood filler or a similar 2-part epoxy like Bondo should stick to PVC, but you may need to lightly sand/roughen the PVC a bit to help the epoxy stick to it if it has a very smooth surface. I haven't personally used the Minwax brand, but it should work.

[@davidmontalvo781]

Is it okay if I use wood shavings with this product?

[@farristurner6443]

What was the sand paper grit?

[@FixThisHouse]

Hi! I used 80 grit 👍🏽

[@tonywilliams8426]

Clear, concise and informative. Can I get this product in UK please?

[@FixThisHouse]

Thank you 🙏🏽! I’m not sure, but you can get this product on Amazon.

[@jcandy5799]

It is Bondo (Polyester resin) autonomy filler, in the UK you have a manufacture called EGC

[@raeleenmandy6359]

What kind of sanding grid did you use

[@outboundterrain6454]

I think he said 80 grit...

[@coolmjr]

What paint sprayer are you using?

[@FixThisHouse]

Hi I’m using the Graco airless paint sprayer. Please see my video I made on that sprayer. Sprayer product link on that video 👍🏽😊

[@billnavarre5308]

Why not use a pre mixed wood filler much quicker

[@mister_cottonESQ]

What grit sand paper did you use?

[@FixThisHouse]

Hi! You can use 80-120 grit

[@freyl.9408]

Fiberglass bondo is the best thing you can use as wood filler,indoor or outdoor

[@Jj-pb9vl]

Hi, where can I find the wood filler hardener? I couldn’t find it at Home Depot or Lowes.

[@FixThisHouse]

Hi! Here is a link to the wood hardener : amzn.to/3ldNIUL

[@Jj-pb9vl]

@@FixThisHouse thank you much! Btw thanks for sharing your tip and great video! ☺️

[@diehardfan173]

How about just plastic wood filler? Same affect right? Can I get such a clean look using stain? Or does it require much more effort? Thanks for the video by the way!

[@dha588]

Couldn't you use all purpose compound ?

[@jaybone4941]

Do you mean all-purpose joint compound? If that's what you're referrig to, I wouldn't suggest using it on anything exterior like he's doing here. Joint compound is water-based and will not hold up to moisture and also won't cure anywhere near as strong as a hardening filler like he's using.

[@theamazingnature2438]

What if you don't put a hardener?

[@FixThisHouse]

It will not harden

Dog chewed banister how do I repair

[@timh8324]

seems like you mixed a lot with your first batch when you only have 15 minutes - plus you could have scraped more off - sanding that stuff can take some time.

[@rickybobby7276]

Why use a high strength wood filler just to fill gaps? Seems like it would have made more sense to use normal wood filler and it would have been much easier to work with.

[@marlonestrella8105]

Good video but you should really be using a painters mask when dealing with that stuff. The smell of it is toxic, not even a proper ventilated area can dissipate the chemical fast enough before the vapors enter your respiratory system.... also should be using the painters mask when using paint gun lol....

[@technoman9000]

A little styrene never hurt nobody!

[@americannational7402]

Identical to BONDO... this here is story of my life....10yrs go by for each job.... terrible solution for anything large....

[@furiousmojo1]

I agree

[@anthonyjsalcido]

Are you supposed to wear eye protection and a mask when sanding that stuff?

[@FixThisHouse]

Yes would be wise! 👍🏽😊
