What Customers Are Saying
The product is generally effective at filling small holes and gaps in wood, but can be challenging to work with due to its quick drying and hardening properties. Some users reported inconsistent quality, with cans that were only partially full or contained dried-out filler. While suitable for minor repairs, the product may not be ideal for larger jobs or require additional tools and techniques to achieve desired results.

Would RecommendDid its job
The best wood filler
Would RecommendPlastic Wood is the best wood filler. It dries quick and is durable.
Great product
Would RecommendGreat product does the job way to sand
Don't use your finger to apply :)
Would RecommendApplication was easy, though it continued to ooze out of the tube and dried very quickly
Good for nail holes and imperfections
Would RecommendWorks well. Be careful if your aren’t in a hurry it will set up before you are finished. For me, this was the selling point.
Easy to use
Would RecommendA bit crumbly when applying but hardens well and is easy to use. I just had a small repair where my fence bolt had striped the wood over time. I filled the old hole, let it dry and replaced the bolt and it has worked perfectly.

Would RecommendPlastic 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.

Would RecommendIt works great.
Acetone make application much easier w/ less waste
Would RecommendLid 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.
