Which Filler is best?

[Dunc]

Morning all,

When it comes to cabinet restoration, which fillers have you found to be the best?

Which makes? I'm guessing branded stuff rather than Poundland own brand super special filler lol

I used this stuff on my R&B.



It's a two part epoxy and so far as i'm aware it's not that dissimilar to the stuff they use for filling car bodies.

Dried quickly and sanded down nicely with a random orbital sander.

Car body filler for me. I find it's easier to work as it's finer. Sands easier too.

I've not done anything with a cab, but plenty of woodworking projects where I wished I'd got something easier to sand - it's a bitch if the filler I'd harder than the wood. I found a really good one for use on playfields which would be good for major damage, but I'm not at home this week and can't remember what it was called. It was a car filler I think, and I think branded something along the lines of "easy sand"
