Over time, wood often develops small holes and flaws. When you spot these imperfections, a wood filler or hardener can help you make the necessary repairs to restore the appearance and strength of your wood furniture. Ace Hardware helps you get the job underway with a diverse assortment of wood hardener and filler products available in stores and online.
What Is Wood Filler For?
Wood filler is a substance used to fill in small holes and flaws in wood. It works a lot like spackling compounds do for repairing and patching walls. Wood fillers come in various colors to match different woods, and the right wood filler can help you quickly complete many minor repairs. Use wood filler before applying a fresh coat of wood stain or craft paint when refinishing cabinets and furniture, or apply it to gouges in wood flooring, scratches in trim and more.
Types of Wood Filler Products
There are a few types of wood filler products available for your project. One option is an epoxy wood filler or wood putty, which you usually apply with a putty knife. These products contain synthetic ingredients that allow them to remain flexible over time. As a result, wood putty is often the best choice for fixing wood that may swell due to humidity. To apply wood putty, you’ll need a putty knife.
In addition to wood putty, you can find water-based and petroleum-based wood fillers:
- Water-based fillers have a crumbly consistency. They typically dry quickly, letting you complete a repair job in no time.
- Petroleum-based wood filler generally has a stronger smell and a slower dry time, but it creates a strong bond in wood once fully dried. Its bonding properties can reduce the risk of damaged wood cracking more in the future.
Most wood fillers go on with a putty knife. For small jobs, consider filler sticks that you rub directly onto wood to complete the task.
Strengthen Wood with Wood Hardener
Exposure to moisture can cause wood to decay or rot. If you catch this type of damage early, you may be able to rejuvenate rotting wood furniture, cabinetry, and other items with wood hardener. A wood hardener increases the strength of ailing wood to make it more durable. Generally, these products are liquids absorbed by the wood and then form a sturdy base within the material while drying. You can apply wood hardener before an epoxy filler during wood restoration projects. In fact, some manufacturers offer epoxy and wood hardener products that complement one another's actions to ensure the best results.
