Review: Perfect product - I took down a rectangular wooden curtain rail which was fixed by 5 nails. Not only were there 5 big nail holes, the wall behind the wood was untreated and a cm or two uneven from the rest of the wall. I tried a number of fillers that didn't do the job. Then I read somewhere to try this filler. It's amazing. You really can brush it on. Which on a 5 foot curtain pole was just what I needed. The instructions are pretty clear. It takes 24 hours to dry. Which is annoying. And there are two steps to do after 3 and four hours. It's simply smoothing the finish twice before it drys. I didn't bother as it was such a big hole, and I knew it would need sanding. After doing so, and then painting, the finish is perfect. You can't see anything of the large hole
Review: Wonderful product, let down by the delivery. - Like other customers have experienced the tub was damaged on arrival. Hard bits had formed inside the box and also had stuck to the small tub of wood filler in the same box. Fortuantely I had a near empty tub of a product I was to prepared to discard so I transferred the contents from the damaged tub. Have been using Polycell finishing skim for years. The beauty of this product compared to other fillers is the ease of which it can be sanded smooth. Can be used on plaster or painted surfaces and sanded down with a fine sanding block without too much effort. Curing time is quick, a few hours. Allows you to fill deeper imperfections in layers quickly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for filling wallpaper joints?**
A: Not sure what you mean as wallpaper shouldn’t have joints you can see but will skim a rough area of wall first

**Q: could i use this in a bathroom over polystyrine insulation sheets on a wall ?**
A: I have not used this product over this surface however I would assume the product is well capable . The drawback would be the underlying hardness , or lack of it , of the tiles which may make rubbing back quite a sensitive matter . Ideally I would remove the polystyrine tiles as they are highly toxic if on fire .

**Q: Is it Gypsum based?**
A: Unsure think it’s plaster of paris based

**Q: can this be used on plasterboard ceiling in porch**
A: This can be used on a plasterboard ceiling in a porch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product
*by Z***S on 7 June 2022*

Having never tried to skim a wall before i think this product has done a pretty good job . I spayed the wall with water before applying as recommended for powdery dry surfaces. Painted on easily with a paint brush then provided plastic spatula did a good enough job of making a fairly smooth surface . 2 hours later i went back smoothed of the rough bits with a wet paint brush then went back over any uneven parts with more skim using the plastic tool . Im happy with the results it should i hope look fine once painted.
