What Customers Are Saying

The Minwax wood putty has received mixed reviews. Many found it easy to apply with a good color match, effective for filling small holes, dents, and scratches. However, a significant number reported issues with the putty not drying or hardening properly, making it difficult to sand or finish the repairs. Some also found the putty too dry and crumbly, or too soft and gooey, challenging to work with. The product may be best suited for small, temporary fixes rather than larger, more permanent repairs.

Would Not Recommend

So, let me start by saying I have always been a fan of Minwax products. They've never let me down. I make small toys from mostly salvaged and recycled wood. Because of my lumber source, I am always filling cracks, nail and screw holes. I bought the Minwax Wood Putty when I saw on the label that it Never Hardens.
