Grain Filler is supplied as a paste, which is thinned with white spirit for use. It is applied to wood before finishing to fill the pores, preventing sinking of the finish. Available in Mahogany, Natural, Oak and Teak. The natural shade can be thinned with Rustins Wood Dye so that filling and staining can be carried out in one operation. Suitable for all types of woods. 230g

Type: Paste consisting of various fillers and pigments dispersed in an oleo-resinous medium.

Use: To fill the grain of all types of wood.

Special Features: Variable particle size for exact filling, irrespective of the type of wood to which it is applied.

Preparation: Wood that is to be filled should be cleaned with White Spirit and fine wire wool to ensure it is free from grease and wax.

Application: Thin with White Spirit to a thin cream consistency and rub hard across the surface of the wood with a piece of coarse cloth. After a short while, remove the surplus filler with a cloth. It is important that no residue is left on the surface, as it would set very hard and could only be removed by sanding.

Coats: One application is usually sufficient.

Drying Time: 5-6 hours

Re-coating Time: Leave for 12 hours before cutting back with fine sand paper.

Application Temperature: Use in a warm, dry atmosphere, ideally 15- 25 °C.

Maintenance: Wipe with damp cloth. Greasy or dirty surfaces should be cleaned with a mild non abrasive liquid detergent. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents. Wax polishes may be used.

Compatibility: Rustins Grain Filler is compatible with all types of finishes. Rustins solvent-based Wood Dyes may be used to thin the filler instead of white spirit, so that staining and filling can be carried out in one operation.
