Application Tips (General Guidance – Refer to Product Label for Full Instructions):

1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free of any loose material, paint, or old finish. Works best on unfinished wood.
2. Application: Apply the wood filler firmly into the defect using a putty knife or similar tool. Slightly overfill to allow for sanding. For deep repairs, apply in layers 1/4 inch thick, allowing each layer to dry.
3. Drying: Allow the filler to dry completely. Drying time will vary based on the depth of the fill, temperature, and humidity. Refer to the product label for specific drying times before sanding or staining.
4. Sanding: Once completely dry, sand the filled area smooth and flush with the surrounding wood. Start with medium-grit sandpaper and finish with fine-grit.
5. Staining: The repaired area is now ready to accept Minwax oil-based or water-based penetrating wood stains. Apply stain according to its label directions.
