The Soudal Repair Express 2-Part Wood Filler represents a breakthrough in wood repair technology, integrating a two-part formula that accelerates curing to an extraordinary 5-6 minutes at standard room temperature. This rapid curing property does not compromise the quality of the repair; rather, it enhances the strength and durability of the wood filler, making it an ideal solution for urgent and demanding wood repair needs.
This wood filler is composed of a resin and a hardener, which when mixed, initiate a chemical reaction that leads to quick setting and curing of the product. This reaction ensures that the filler bonds robustly with wood surfaces, providing high structural strength and making the repair area extremely tough and resilient to wear and tear.
The ease of sanding and the product’s ability to accept most spirit-based wood stains once cured make it a versatile choice for all finishing processes. Its excellent modelling properties allow it to be shaped and moulded during the initial setting phase, making it ideal for reconstructing damaged wood sections or crafting intricate designs in restoration projects.
Soudal Repair Express 2-Part Wood Filler is formulated to be easy to mix and apply, ensuring that even those new to DIY wood repair can achieve professional-standard results. Its diverse colour range allows for matching with most wood types, seamlessly blending the repair into the surrounding area.

Its technological innovation ensures that it stands out as a top choice for a wide array of wood repair and restoration tasks.
Soudal Repair Express 2-Part Wood Filler is ideally suited for wood substrates, including softwoods, hardwoods, and engineered woods such as MDF and chipboard.
The key to effective use of this product is ensuring that the wood type and the environmental conditions are compatible with the product’s specifications.
This filler is specifically formulated to adhere well and provide durability, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor repairs.
Before applying the wood filler, it is crucial to prepare the surface adequately to ensure the best results.
Begin by removing all soft, loose, and rotten timber from the area to be repaired. Use a suitable tool to cut out the damaged sections completely. Once the damaged material is removed, thoroughly clean the area to eliminate all dust and debris, which could hinder the adhesion of the filler.
If necessary, slightly roughen the clean, solid wood surface to enhance the bonding of the filler.
To use Soudal Repair Express 2-Part Wood Filler, follow these detailed steps:
Measure out a golf ball-sized amount of the filler onto a clean, flat mixing board using a filler spreader.
Squeeze approximately two inches of hardener from the tube beside the filler.
Mix the filler and hardener thoroughly using a folding action to ensure a consistent mix. During mixing, frequently scrape the base of the mixing board and the spreader to incorporate all material and avoid any uncured filler in the repair.
Apply the mixed filler to the prepared wood surface in small amounts initially to avoid trapping air beneath the filler. This step is critical for achieving a solid, stable repair.
Gradually build up the filler in larger volumes as needed, making sure to smooth it over the surface before it begins to set. Leave the filler slightly proud of the surface to allow for subsequent sanding.
The filler has an open time of 5-6 minutes once mixed, after which it will begin to set. Work efficiently to apply the filler within this time frame.
After applying the filler, allow it to cure for 15-20 minutes before starting the sanding process. Sand the area to a smooth finish, ensuring that it blends seamlessly with the surrounding wood.
The filler's rapid curing time facilitates a quick progression to finishing touches, including painting or staining to match the surrounding areas.
Tools and mixing boards should be cleaned immediately after use with a suitable solvent to remove any uncured filler. If the filler has already cured, mechanical removal (such as sanding) might be necessary.
It is important to clean all tools promptly to maintain their condition and ensure their readiness for future use.
