What Is A Hard Stop Filler?

[@alexthomson7465]

The timing of this is truly unbelievable. Did a 1st coat of paint on lining paper yesterday and was planning on trawling youtube for disguising seams tips today. This is an unspeakably massive help thanks!

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. glad we can help..

Just finished a bathroom renovation for a client. Skirting were undercoated before fitting. Mixed filler with paint, and hey presto, perfect result. Your skills and tips are second to none. The workshop is great for all your demos. Watching your videos are better than any spa days. Love the music too. 👌

I've learned a lot of tips from this channel quick and lasting ways to get around problems.worked on cars paint work mostly,so I can appreciate ways around different things, always use this channel to find out and problem solving on my own house DIY excellent 👌. should imagine it's hard to fill content on any utube channel regardless what it's about.👍🇬🇧

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you... it's not to difficult to think of a video.. it's more difficult to find the time.. and location.

What a tip. Had no idea you could do this

[@saudilass]

EVERY TIME 🙀 Your videos always educate but this one? Thank you so much had never heard of “hard stop filler” but it’s already changed my decorating stress level down substantially 😊 Even the polyfilla mixing was a game changer for me. I have spent years mixing it in a soup bowl with a fork for 30 seconds! No wonder it dries like an ant hill and takes the orbital sander to smooth it. Will be using your method from now on.

Thank you glad we can help..

Very interesting. I can see where this would work and will use it for some of the tips given. I have just filled in some holes, and I used a brush to paint broadly over them with water-based primer.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you..

[@robertpanetta7912]

Good tip especially if you are only going to apply one coat of paint then you might see a small hole to fill after the coat of paint

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.

I've watched a few vids and can honestly say from my own experience as a Professional you guys are spot on. Do you guys do any paint spraying at all ?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. not now have done spraying in the past.. even fire protection.

[@pinkplonker8776]

Great video as always, can this be done with vinyl paint? Thanks

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes but it works best with Matt. Thanks

[@pinkplonker8776]

@@PaintingandDecorating I was going to use matt. Thanks for the quick reply.

Your a genius

Is it possible to make a good hard stop filler using premixed joint/patching compound? Powdered fillers, like PolyFilla, are not easy to find or to buy in the US. Again, a great video.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. sure it will work.. just try a small amount..

[@markyp29]

My hard stop filler keeps cracking along the lining paper joints after final coat of emulsion. Takes about 10 days to 2 weeks to do so. Any idea why and how to stop it. Was using polyfilla One Fill mixed with Crown Kichen Easy Clean. Could it be the filler isn't ideal for this application?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Possible it's the filler, we use easy sand pollyfilla. Not had problems like that, it also could be that paint with that filler. Thanks

NOOICE!

[@spills_n_thrills]

What's the main benefit of powdered filler? You only use what you need each time? Seems a faff

[@PaintingandDecorating]

All depends on what your doing.. sometimes we may buy small tubes of filler.. so you can keep it in your pouch when doing large jobs and you don't know when you need to use filler. But generally we like to mix are own to the right consistency.. depending what we are filling.
