What Customers Are Saying
The product is a decent wood filler that dries quickly and sands well, making it suitable for filling small holes and cracks. However, some users found it challenging to work with as it dried out too quickly, and the cans were often less than half full upon opening. The filler can be difficult to smooth and shape. Overall, the product works well for basic wood repair tasks, but has limitations in terms of workability and consistency.

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.
It's weatherproof
Would Not RecommendWe bought several cans to fill our shed last Fall. This Spring it is crumbling. Big waste of money.

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.
Only for patching and light sanding

It's better than the description on the packaging.
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.

Not a bad product but it is dry off the start
Would Not RecommendProduct 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.
