Dark Oak Colour

The Dark Oak colour is intended to provide a closer visual match when repairing darker timber and dark oak-style finishes.

It may be suitable for use with compatible:

  • Dark timber furniture
  • Wooden doors
  • Timber frames
  • Skirting boards

For deep holes, structural damage or heavily deteriorated timber, a standard woodfiller may not be appropriate. Use a repair system specifically designed for the application where required.

How to Apply Woodfiller

Before applying the woodfiller, ensure the repair area is properly prepared.

For general application:

  1. Remove loose material, dust and dirt from the damaged area.
  2. Ensure the surface is suitably clean and prepared.
  3. Apply the woodfiller into the crack, hole or imperfection using an appropriate filling tool.
  4. Press the filler firmly into the repair area.
  5. Smooth the surface and remove excessive material.
  6. Allow the filler to dry according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  7. Sand the repaired area where appropriate.
  8. Remove sanding dust before applying the final finish.

Always follow the instructions printed on the product packaging, as application methods and drying times can vary between formulations.

Sanding and Finishing

Once fully cured, compatible woodfillers can generally be sanded to help blend the repair with the surrounding timber.

If the repaired surface will be painted, stained, varnished or sealed, first confirm that the woodfiller is compatible with the intended finishing product.

Because filler and natural timber may absorb stains differently, a perfect colour match cannot always be guaranteed.
