Product Description
DAP Plastic Wood Professional Solvent Wood Filler is a high-performance, solvent-based wood filler that hardens to give a repair that is 3X stronger than the wood itself.* This professional-grade, heavy duty wood filler contains real wood fibers so it looks and acts like real wood. It can be sanded, cut, drilled, screwed, planed, stained, varnished, painted, or lacquered. DAP Plastic Wood Solvent Professional Wood Filler dries fast and hard providing strong nail and screw anchoring without splitting. Ideal for repairing furniture, doors, paneling, molding, plywood, and other wood surfaces. Available in several popular wood shades, and also stainable to match any wood shade.
* When compared to white pine.

Application Instructions
- Surface to be filled must be clean, dry and unglazed for best adhesion. Wood, wood filler and air temperature should be 400°F or above.
- Match wood filler color to finished wood. Test wood filler, stain and finish combination on a small area first to ensure desired stain color.
- If wood is to be stained, stain before filling with wood filler. Then use stain to develop desired final finish. Please follow stain manufacturer’s instructions for application.
- For canned products, stir product with putty knife or spatula before application.
- If the wood filler has become too stiff or dry, thin with acetone.
- Press wood filler firmly into place with a putty knife, spatula or tool. Avoid excess contact with the surrounding area. Build fill up slightly higher than surface to allow for settling and sanding.
- Allow to dry thoroughly before sanding or finishing. Dries in as little as 15 minutes for shallow, low volume fills and 2-24 hours in larger volume fills 1/4-inch deep and over. Sand with medium sandpaper(100 grit).
- For larger and deeper repairs, apply two or more thin layers, allowing wood filler to dry between applications. Overfill to allow for settling and sanding.

Question & Answers
User Reviews
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
