Staining wood filler
Q: I am a first time home remodeler and have run into the problem of staining nail holes filled with wood putty. I have used the following products with poor results: ********** “Stainable” Wood Filler, ******* Wood Dough, and ********** Wood Filler. Regardless of sanding and multiple coats of stain the putty areas are clearly visible. What suggestions do you recommend? By the way, is it possible to mix the putty with the stain that will be applied.
A: A wood filler such as that from Woodwise is a good product which takes the stain. There are also pre tinted putty mixes either in tubes or jars that work if you can find the right colour. I doubt you would get any stain to mix with such putty.
