DAP 7079821500 Plastic Wood Slvnt NAT 1.87 Oz Raw Building Material, Natural

A classic, always useful..A a must for DIY.

Another reviewer complained that this material dries and becomes harder than the wood around it. Word of warning - that is entirely true. I filled some screw holes on a guitar with this material, and wound up snapping two screws when driving them into this material.

I used it to fill a deep 3/8" hole just to fill the space. It seems very firm. I also used it to fill a hole in wooden trim and re-drilled it for a screw that holds on an aluminum frame for a storm door. It is holding strong. It helps to have this in a squeezable tube to project it into small holes, but the downside is that there is not very much in each tube.

Works great. Why on earth do they also put it in a can? An hour after you use it---even if you cap it---it's dry. And more stores have the can--which is why I got it from Amazon.

Good

Works great. Drys fast. Sands great. Finishes great. Takes stain.

Great for small repairs and for crafts. Love this item. Fast & smooth transaction. Thank you.

This review refers to the 1.87 oz. tubes of Plastic Wood.These days, when you open a tube of Plastic Wood, you never know what you’re going to get. It has no uniformity anymore. You may open a tube and find that the liquid-y, free-flowing part of it is at all at the nozzle end, so that when you open the tube, what comes out is basically a liquid, instead of the soft, putty-like substance that it should be - and used to be, in the past. You can’t apply liquid to a piece of wood and end up with more wood. You SHOULD end up with more wood, and that DID occur with Plastic Wood when it dried, before DAP messed up the product.The next tube you open may have the opposite problem, where all the solvent is at the crimped end, opposite to the nozzle. Then when you squeeze the tube, hardly anything comes out, no matter how hard you squeeze, because the material at the nozzle end has little solvent in it, and it’s all stiff. It’s virtually impossible to get it out of the tube.A long time ago I used to buy the cans, but they would dry out before I had used much of them. So I changed to the 1.87 oz. tubes, and they worked well until recently. Now they’re unusable the minute you open them.I used Plastic Wood for many years, and it’s sad that DAP has completely ruined their product. But that’s exactly what they’ve done, and now I will no longer buy it.
