Light Oak Colour

The Light Oak colour is designed to provide a closer visual match when repairing lighter timber and light oak-style finishes.

It may be suitable for compatible:

• Light timber furniture
• Wooden doors
• Door frames
• Skirting boards
• Shelving
• Cupboards
• Wooden trim
• Decorative timber
• Furniture components
• General woodworking projects

Natural timber can vary significantly in grain, shade and colour. The final appearance of the filler may therefore differ from the surrounding wood.

For highly visible repairs, test the filler on a small or inconspicuous section first.

How to Apply Woodfiller

Correct surface preparation can help achieve a cleaner and more professional repair.

For general application:

1. Remove loose material from the repair area.
2. Clean away dust, dirt and debris.
3. Ensure the timber is suitably prepared.
4. Apply the woodfiller into the crack, hole or damaged section.
5. Press the filler firmly into the repair.
6. Smooth the surface and remove excess material.
7. Allow the filler to dry fully according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Sand the repaired area where appropriate.
9. Remove sanding dust before applying the final finish.

For deeper repairs, the manufacturer may recommend applying the filler in stages rather than one thick application.

Sanding and Finishing

Once properly dried or cured, compatible woodfillers can generally be sanded to help create a smoother transition between the repaired section and the surrounding timber.

Before applying paint, wood stain, varnish or sealer, confirm that the particular woodfiller is compatible with the intended finishing system.

Woodfiller and natural timber may absorb stain differently, so an exact colour match after staining cannot be guaranteed.

Careful Colour Matching

Light Oak is a general wood colour rather than an exact match for every light oak surface.

Colour can be influenced by:

• Timber species
• Existing stain
• Previous varnish
• Age of the timber
• Exposure to sunlight
• Surface preparation
• Final finishing product

Testing before completing a prominent repair is recommended.
