Gorilla All Purpose Wood Filler, 16 Ounce Tub, Natural (Pack of 1)

I ordered this and it arrived very late after I was informed it was lost by carrier. I have no way to advise Amazon I accepted it. Upon opening, I noticed the top had long crack that allowed air inside, forming a dry crust on filler. I scraped it off and after doing so, realized I could not return it. I made use of some filler and repaired the cracked top. I will buy again, but not online. Shipping delays caused a week delay in completion of project.

This is probably a great product for repairing furniture and other stuff but I used it on some siding on the outside of my house and it came out terribly and didn’t seal in the cracks very well.

Like brand quality, how it works and spreads. I close container tightly, wrap in plastic wrap and put in a zip lock bag. Nothing worse than needing a product, and finding it is dryed out. I also keep all putty, paint ect inside house during winter.

Thus product has grit in it, like sand, it shrinks when drying. So filling holes in drawer fronts was a lot if extra work. Had to fill 2x and and each time. Inconsistent, air holes and shrinkage. I had 8 drawers to fill holes on and it took me much longer because of the product. I still didn’t end up with a smooth defect free finish. I was under time crunch, and this became a frustrating issue. I ordered powdered wood fill; So I can control consistency and get a smooth finish. I also tried wood putty powder on next project and seemed to act like drywall mud, did end up building it up and was able to sand perfectly even. Probably needed to be primed, even with chalk paint. Didnt crack or shrink, though, as was promised.

Works just like wood, filled the holes fine , and sanded down with little effort

Works as good as other wood fillers. Best if used under paint.

Easy to spread and fill but does shrink and crack. Very gritty which makes sanding it easy but also likes to crumble while trying to use it.

This filler is pretty good, gorilla makes really good products so I wasn’t surprised. The texture of the filler looks and feels like paste with sand in it. It’s pretty easy to spread but you do need a plastic spreader spatula to add some good pressure for filling holes. Drying time is about a day so you can take your time spreading and easily clean up unwanted areas. After a day of drying sanding is super easy, I used 80 then 320 grit and it was super easy to sand without clogging the sand paper not even the 320 grit. Overall it’s a nice filler, i do like the other pink filler that changes color after it dries but if you have no problem waiting a full day then this is pretty good. The picture I included still has holes but because I didn’t do it correctly, it was just to test the sanding properties of it before I did it correctly for paint. I have to add that I had to order a replacement because the first tub arrived damaged which caused half the product to become dry, it came in an envelope type of packaging. The second one did arrive perfectly but was still sent in the wrong type of packaging.

Ive used a lot of wood fillers over the years, and the usual frustrations for me were that I couldnt easily use them to fill deeper holes and indentations except by time-consuming, repeated applications of thin layers. And, thereafter, the cured filler would absorb moisture from primers or paints, causing the sanded-smooth surface to swell up and bulge out slightly. Happily, neither of those issues was a problem with this filler. I used it to fill knot holes in the planks on my old outdoor deck. I found that the deeper holes could be filled with just two (thick) applications, usually 4 hours apart so long as it was warm and dry out. Then, once sanded, Gorillas formulation didnt absorb moisture but remained exactly as I sanded it to be. I ended up needing two tubs, buying the second after how happy I was with the first. This is a new generation of wood filler and a welcome one at that!

Works as expected,Used it to fill holes on wooden desk & work table.
