I filled everything by squeezing small amounts on to my moistened index filler and then pressed the product into the brad indentations and the crown moulding joints

I then smoothed it out further by running a damp cloth along the filled areas using very mild pressure

The job took about 12 hour and the wood filler remained pliable not drying out too quickly

I repaired my door with a twopart epoxy type of wood from another company but by the time i was finished and had run out they were a couple small spots i wanted to still fill and i didnt want to have to buy two big tubs of the twopart product so i purchased some of this to fill in little holes

At first i was a little concerned because when it started to dry it seemed very chalky and i was afraid it wouldnt dry hard but in the end after 24 hours i came back and it was just as hard as the two part epoxy product and i was able to sand it down with the rest of the door

I found that because it dries so quickly it was hard to flatten it out so i ended up molding it with my fingers once it had dried a little bit and that made it so much easier to work with
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I applied it everywhere i needed it and then let it sit for a couple minutes and went back in to flatten it out move it around and even shape it with my fingers
