DAP 00585 Latex 6oz, White All Purpose Plastic Wood Filler, 6 Oz

Great for finish nail holes. Dries quickly and doesnt shrink much. Can wipe smooth without need for sanding.

Easy to use to hide nails on baseboards

Easy to use

Expensive for what it is. There are no color matching tools so you need to know exactly what you need. If you spill or misplace it, it is difficult to clean up. Acetone and toluene (70/30% v/v) was what I found most useful. It does get the job done though.

I had three stripped-out screw holes where my upper door hinge attaches to the door frame. Since there are only two hinges, the door was kind of flopping around loosely. This is the front door to my apartment, so its important that I keep it locked when I leave. And the only way I could lock it was by lifting the door by the door knob and pulling it shut so it could latch. I was going to inform my landlady, but she kind of freaks out whenever I call her with a problem -- so I decided to attempt to repair the stripped-out screw holes myself, and leave the poor lady alone. After reading some of the reviews for this wood filler, I decided to order it and give it a go. I received the product a couple of days ago. I decided to start with one screw hole -- just to see how it would work. So I splooged a fair amount of the wood filler inside the screw hole, pushed it in with a jewelers screwdriver, re-splooged some more in, and continued the process until I was certain Id really filled the hole up as much as possible. (Splooged is a scientific term; you can look it up!) I then let it set overnight, and attempted to screw the screw back into the hole. The entire endeavor proved fruitless. The screw went in real loose, and kept turning sloppily -- no grip whatsoever. Undaunted, I went back to Amazon, and proceeded to read some of the Q&As on this wood filler. One suggestion I read indicated that one might insert a toothpick or a wood sliver into the hole, along with the filler, and that might shore up the hole effectively. However, I had no toothpicks. But I did have an old pine board that wasnt doing anything in particular. I decided to kind of cut into the board and produce two good-sized slivers that were thick enough so that I could hammer them into place within the screw hole, after I applied more wood filler. Again, I let it set so it could harden. Before I attempted to screw the screw back into the reinforced hole, I decided to smear more wood filler all over the screws threads, just because. And who was gonna stop me?! No one, thats who! Finally, I began to carefully and slowly screw the screw back into the hole without re-drilling. Right away, I noticed a big difference. There was a lot more resistance present as I hand-tightened the screw with my handy dandy screw driver. When the screw was flush with the plate, I really reefed on it to see how tight I could get it. Success!!! I tightened the screw as much as was physically possible, and it appeared to hold beautifully. I followed suit with the other two screw holes, and was successful on both counts. Problem solved! I hope it holds. However, Im not certain how much the wood filler played a part in my repair job. I mean, it couldve just been the slivers of pine alone that did the trick. Or maybe it was the combination of the pine-sliver inserts and the wood filler that proved effective. Id like to think the latter is correct, because I sincerely wish to justify this purchase. So, thats the reason for the four-star review. Hope this helps! Thank you very much. Goodbye.

I used this to fill up holes in a bookshelf project that is to be painted white. This filler works great. Dispensing is easy and clean up is a breeze. Only downside- it is too expensive for its size.

Second tube Ive bought. Works great! However, I just received my second tube and it contained maybe half of what its supposed to. Its a 6 oz. tube, Im guessing I was lucky to get 3 oz. out of it. Though it was sealed company should do a quality control before sending out. If weights and measures got this there would probably been a warning or a fine.

I have tried this product on TV stand to fill some dents. Not stainable at all. Stain comes off. Doesnt matter how long you wait if you try to wipe it with wet towel all fillings comes off. Not curing even if you wait. Very disappointed.

Great product, only issue is it took a very long time to receive it

Super easy to work with. Dries matter. Cleans up easily with water, even after it dries (needs to be sealed. Is not waterproof). I used this to fill small gaps in my self-installed bathroom flooring. (I said I did it. I didn’t say I did it WELL.) Worked great and saved me the trouble of having to try to fit minuscule scrap pieces into the gaps. Sealed with clear matte waterproof glue.
