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 3 parts by volume of Exterior 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.
• Spakfilla Exterior has a working time of 20 minutes and the material should be applied within this time.
• Leave for 1 hour before sanding and painting.

Handy tips

• Product has minimal shrinkage so there is no need for excessive overfill
• Clean tools in water before product sets
• Ensure mixture is stirred thoroughly before adding more water. If filler mix is still too dry, add one teaspoon of water and mix in
• Leave product for at least 1 hour before sanding and painting
• For general use, mix 3 parts Spakfilla to 1 part water
• 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.
