Review: Seamlessly Fill Gaps in Your 3D Prints - As a 3D printing enthusiast, I've found this to be an excellent product for filling gaps and imperfections in my 3D prints. This woodfiller is specifically designed to work with wood, but I've found that it works just as well on my 3D printed models. The woodfiller blends in nicely with my 3D printed objects, making any gaps or imperfections virtually disappear. The woodfiller is easy to apply and dries quickly, which is important when I have multiple prints to finish. One of the things I appreciate most about this woodfiller is that it doesn't shrink or crack as it dries, which can be a problem with other types of fillers. It's also easy to sand down to a smooth finish, which is essential for achieving a professional-looking final product. The 32-ounce container is quite large and will last a long time, even with frequent use. It's also reasonably priced, making it a great value for the money. I highly recommend this for anyone who needs to fill in gaps or imperfections in their 3D printed models. It's easy to use, dries quickly, and provides a great finish that blends in seamlessly with the surrounding material
Review: Would buy again. - So far so good. We used to replace rotted missing wood from a window sill in a bedroom. It is a rented house, so thats why we did that. It filled the large area really well. It was very easy to apply and was thick enough. The color is good and the function of it is great. It was easy to sand. I would buy this again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone tried to "stain" this wood filler, does it stain well?**
A: Yes it will take stain but I would stain just the filler using a small paint brush to make it match the unstained wood around it, let that dry, then stain the whole piece as normal and you’ll have a better chance of it all blending better. This should not be used for large sections but rather to blend away small ding, holes, gouges, etc.

**Q: Has anyone tried staining this product yet....or only used with paint?  do i need to buy the specific "stainable filler"?  thank you.**
A: I used this stuff with paint when I was making props for a costume. It takes to paint very well, you may need a couple of coats, but it will work.

**Q: Yes, it says for interior...but any success/experience using it for exterior purposes? i need to fix cracked wood on patio door frame. tia**
A: Elmer's Wood filler is water soluble even after drying so successful outdoor use is not assured.  For best results use a solvent based wood filler or a Bondo-like product.

**Q: will it fill a door knob hole?**
A: I would not use this alone to fill a large hole like a hole for a door knob
