What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise the product's excellent color matching and seamless blending with stained wood surfaces, along with its easy application using just fingers and minimal sanding required. Many appreciate the pliable, convenient formula for quick touch-ups on nail holes and scratches. However, a notable group expresses frustration that the putty does not harden, questioning its durability and suitability for permanent repairs. Some report the formula remains soft even after extended drying time. Despite concerns from those expecting a traditional wood filler, most customers find it effective for its intended use.

Pretty good

Would Recommend

I purchased this to fill in errors on wood laminate flooring installation. It was too light in color but able to be mixed with black. It is dry to apply. I would recommend it be softer or “wetter”. It is very easy to clean off after application.

Good Putty

Would Recommend

Good color match for Colonial Maple stain projects. But it’s putty, so it’s intended just for slight cover-ups.
