Ratings & Reviews for DAP Plastic Wood 16 Ounce(s) Natural Wood Filler

Pinocchio Nose

Plastic Wood is a very good product that can be used to repair both small and large areas of damaged wood. For larger repairs, it does take more time to properly fill deeper gaps, often requiring multiple applications. However, once it hardens, it performs very well and can be sanded to a smooth finish. I’ve also had great success with color matching. Plastic Wood takes stain nicely and works well with both oil-based and acrylic paints.

Only for patching and light sanding

Not drillable after 24hrs

Quality

Product dried quickly and is holding solid

It thins with acetone. You should have some around

It is fast -drying. Sands like wood after setting up.

There is no shrinkage in it covered well in one ap

Pretty expensive for a tiny can.

It's better than the description on the packaging.

It works great.

Acetone make application much easier w/ less waste

Lid does not close (reseal) properly for some reason. Acetone should be kept on hand as a thinner for the product to thin the product to ease application. (sort of like adding a small amount of water to sheetrock mud...). As a wood filler, it works great. It dries quickly and can be resoftened (if needed) with acetone... so there is very little waste.

Good wood filler

Good wood filler

Not a bad product but it is dry off the start

Product works well, but out of the jar it was fairly dry. Returned the first one that I had and the second one was dry as well. Just doesn’t apply really well because of how dry it was, but it does do the job.

Gap filler for trim gaps.

It works like is says it does.

For storage , turn the can upside down

This dries out quickly.

sets up to fast...

Used this product outdoors to fill carpenter bee holes, and small woodpecker channels on a piece of facia board.. The filler didnt stay pliable very long and set up fast..ok for small wood working nail holes in a controlled environment

Saved so much money

This DAP Plastic Wood saved me a fortune on a window frame that I honestly thought was a goner. The wood was starting to look pretty rough and weathered, and I was dreading the cost of a full replacement, but this stuff bridged the gap perfectly. Because it’s solvent-based, it dries incredibly hard and actually feels like part of the wood once it sets, which gave me a lot more confidence in the structural repair than the water-based stuff ever could. It dries fast—almost too fast if you’re not c...

Don't use it as to fill big surface in thin amount

smaller tube amount and the nozzle was just small enough to put it in the hole and fill it better than using your finger to press the putty into the hole.
