All of there products are great. Can't say enough about drying time and can be resoftened with water if it dries up in the container
This is Great!

The Timber Mate products are great, have used their wood fillers for years. WAY better than the alternatives. Easy to apply, dry's quick and sands smooth easily. Water based, so easy clean up and if the filler starts to stiffen in the container, just a few drops of water bring it back to life. Great stuff.

This product provides a strong wood repair, and is easy to shape. It is expensive, but worth it for fine or valuable wood repair like furniture or guitar chips. The color is more yellow than natural clear maple, but it takes stains and finishes well

The color of this wood filler is a perfect match for the birch plywood I'm working with. It spreads on easily and sands down very well. The only complaint is the expense, which it about double other fillers. But because the color is so spot on, it's worth the money to me.

Other than delivery which is not the product’s fault, THIS is the best!I was trying to keep a pine t&g finished natural with just a matte poly, so I was using the sawdust and glue method which oxidized and dried dark. This would have been fine if I was staining. This has really saved my ass. You cannot even tell it’s there! It was beyond easy to use, reconstitutes with water for easy application and clean up. Had tight corners that would only allow to spread with a fingertip easily, cleaned excess with a wet paper towel and I probably wouldn’t even need to sand. I have used this before with great results, but never expected it to take a matte finish with natural pine so well. Like I said, it’s the best! Could not be happier unless it was a vat! But a little goes a long way. An must in any woodworking abode.

After seeing various woodworkers praise this on YouTube, I got it to try. It's excellent, but I warn you, it stinks big time. It dries quickly, hard as a rock and is easy to sand and it takes stain and paint well. I originally applied it with a putty knife. I saw John Heisz from I Build It use a box cutter for smaller areas and that works better for me than a putty knife. Any leftovers you can add back to the container and use it later. There are a variety of colors for the various woods. I tossed out my other wood filler/wood putty.

Saw this on a youtube video for patching wood. Wish I had known about this a long long time ago. This stuff is so convenient. Goes on easily, dries quickly, sands easily, reconstituted with water, takes a stain - what more can you ask for?As for the people who don’t like the smell - I did not find it especially difficult to tolerate. It’s far less obnoxious than walking past the tire section at Costco, and the smell goes away once it’s dried.

This filler works as advertised, but it is hard to apply smoothly. That's not such a problem since it's very easy to sand, but that does create a need to make more dust.It's water based but has an unpleasant odor comparable to a non-water based product, although not quite as strong. Do not think this will be an odorless or low odor product because of the water solubility.This color matched my natural bamboo floors very well. The color dry is different from the pre-cured color, so I would recommend color testing prior to use.
