Bubbly, dark brown joint filler?

Post by Justin.Leppan »

Hi all

I am redoing a sleeper-wood counter, and the previous carpenter used a lovely dark brown resin-like filler (it has 'bubbles' in it - not 'solid') - which when sanded and varnished looks lovely - anyone used anything like this before?

(I have looked at all the commercial fillers from the local hardware stores but none fit the bill)


Many thanks
Justin.

Hi Justin.

:welcome:

I may be wrong, but it sounds like Gorilla glue to me!!! Gorilla is just the brand name and its not made of mushed up Gorillas.

It has a brown colour and bubbles when set. It also stains the same as wood, so can be blended in.

Hope this helps.
