Elmer's E859 Carpenter's Wood Filler, 3.25-Ounce Tube, Walnut

It's just slightly thinner than dry wall spakling patch. Applies just as easy as spackle, if not easier. I used it to fill the small gaps between wood floors that shrink over time. I just used my finger to get it into the spaces. I let it sit for a few minutes then wipe off the excess with a damp cloth. It dries hard and can be sanded or painted if needed. I purchased the walnut color and it blended with my wood floors perfectly. This product is awesome for those minor repairs.I'm not sure why some reviews said it was difficult to squeeze out? Just cut a bigger hole. Someone else said to add water. I wouldn't do that as it may ruin the products ability to properly harden. It shouldn't be that difficult to squeeze out. Basically if you can not apply this product, then you shouldn't be doing any repairs at all. It's easier than using a screwdriver or hammer. Good luck.

Worked like a charm. The dog chewed on the corner of one of my coffee tables and it needed to be repaired. It was a brand new set so I didn't want to just chuck it. This saved me from having to buy a new one . It turned out great. Took stain well after sanding and is almost unnoticeable! Very Very happy!

Works good, after you get it out of the tube.

Before I get started I'm going admit that I'm not a very handy person. As such I really don't know if I used this correctly or if it was even the right thing use at all. Just the same here are my thoughts.I used this for a lap table, the kind used in breakfast in bed or on a couch. The tables were nice but at least 2 screws fell out of the one I gave my wife. The screws also wouldn't stay when I tried to screw them back in and only created sawdust. At least 1 screw ended up getting lost because of this. The tables couldn't be returned by then so I contacted the manufacturer and they sent replacement screws along with a recommendation of using super glue. Feeling that would be too permanent a solution I bought this instead and it seems to have worked. The screws have stayed on and the wood filler dried up nicely.

I've used wood putty before but never Elmer's. Wood putty works wonders, and Elmers came out ok, but it was too dry and crumbly right out of the tube. I did have to redo a corner of the frame because it wouldn't match up right. I can't comment on the color because I painted it. Next time I'll probably spit on it to moisten it up lol

Some of my paint brushes are rather expensive and I don’t want to replace them. So I fill the holes , straighten the metal , sand and paint them. This was rather easy to do and they are still usable.

good for very small jobs

I installed a custom door from Menard’s in Englush Chesnut color and this product’s color (Walnut) is a very close match. One star off for the need to squeeze it very hard (like 235 lbs 6’ man’s hard) in order to get it out. If you have weak hands - look for something else. It will be a pain in butt.
