How to use this product
- Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free of loose material. Nail heads should be coated with an oil-based paint to prevent rusting.
- Add 2.5 parts by volume of Interior Spakfilla to 1 part water and mix to a smooth paste. For deep cracks and holes use a slightly stiffer mix.
- Press the paste firmly into the crack with a putty knife and smooth off. Slightly overfill to allow for sanding back. Ensure the tools and mixing vessel are clean as dried filler will cause a faster drying rate.
- Leave for 2-3 hours before sanding. Paint the repaired surface with one coat of undercoat prior to repainting the total area.

Handy tips
- Product has minimal shrinkage so there is no need for excessive overfill
- Clean tools in water before product sets
- If filler mix is too dry, add one teaspoon of water and mix in
- For interior use only
- Use Poly Patching Tape to support the product when bridging larger or overhead holes.
- Use a slightly stiffer mixture when applying in over head applications.
- For easier application of filler, use a Rota Cota filling blade, as the tapered & flexible blade assists in smooth application and feathering of edges.
- Sand back to a smooth finish using a Rota Cota Foam Sanding Block as the foam sponge will follow the contours of the surface
- Before painting, clean dust and filler particles using Selleys Sugar Soap or Selleys Super Kleen.
