PC-Woody Paste Epoxy 1.5 Ounce

I had some very rotten windows and a decaying front door but no interest in using highly toxic chemicals to repair them and nowhere near enough money to replace them. After much research I found this. I closely watched a four part YouTube video on how to use it best (recommended) found a UK supplier on Amazon and then set to work in the hot dry weather of earlier this year. It's worth doing the proper prep work if you want it to last but that's true of any job. I sanded off the old paint (pretty much gone anyway) removed all the most rotten wood, drilled holes into the remaining frames/door (angled down where necessary to ensure maximum absorption) and coated all the wood and drill holes very liberally in PC Woody's wood hardener, which true to description has hardly any smell. I let it cure for a few days to very hard since even a spring heat wave doesn't match Arizona desert temperatures and drying time for both hardener and filler is temperature dependent. Then I took a glob from each of the epoxy wood filler tins in a 1:1 ratio mixed well and applied. It isn't the easiest stuff to apply, especially since I was replacing so much of the wood - I had to do it in layers. I recommend wearing latex gloves or similar as it's very sticky, but also true to advertising it doesn't have to be super smooth as it sands down really well and easily when fully dried. I also tried sawing and drilling it and that works too. It smells slightly while drying but nothing to notice (less than low VOC paint). For the record if you add slightly more brown than white it's more malleable but takes longer to dry and vice versa. And don't expect it to harden as fast as it would in a very hot dry climate, but once it does it's rock solid (again I left it a few days). Although the tins look tiny they do more than you'd think. After sanding and painting the windows and doors look like new. You can't tell what's the wood and what's the filler. But it won't look like natural wood without a bit of artistry if you aren't painting it. I'm so pleased there's a non toxic solution to fixing/filling rotten wood that doesn't carry danger of death warnings all over the tin. Yes it's a lot more expensive, but what price health?

I love this putty for repairing damaged wood externally. It's so much better than standard wood filler and the how to videos you can find on YouTube are great.

This worked well for me. Make sure you use separate applicators and mix on a tile. I kept amounts small always using separate trowel for each and mixing with a third. The tile was genius kept it cool (I was working in hot sunshine). Wear gloves and be ready to go go go ..completely sealed my very damaged window sill.

Slightly too light in colour for the teak on our boat but the closest so far. And I have tried a lot. This was by far the best to work with. The color match is close when dry but it stays light and the teak goes dark when the repair stands out. But as I said by far the best I have tried by a long way.

Haven't actually used it yet but has clear instructions. There was a slight delay in customs but seller was easy to contact

I have used Abatron WoodEpox before, and thought PC-Woody would be similar. It's not - it's MUCH harder to apply cleanly because it's so very sticky. I ended up with a very rough surface, and filler sticking to the surrounding wood. Also holes in the main body of the filler that will need a second application. No doubt it will sand down and I can use a surface filler on the holes but Abatron WoodEpox would have been quicker and easier. Never again!

I used this to repair a wooden garden bridge that was beginning to get a bit week in places. I was cutting out old rotten wood and replacing it with new wood and PC Woody. To date the repairs have been really strong. Would recommend or perhaps WOOD recommend.

I used this to fill the joins from the two planks of wood in my decking. Did the job abd made it look a smoother finish.

Good but pretty small tube.

I used this product to repair a carriageway door in the New Orleans French Quarter that had a 6" diameter cavity of rotten wood. The 2 1/2" thick door was almost rotted completely through. The rotten wood was dug out with a dremel tool and the cavity was filled with PC Woody three years ago. After three years of constant use the door is still perfect. I haven't tried staining PC Woody but for priming and painting this works better than anything I've used and I still use it today for wood repairs.

I used this wood paste after I used the wood hardener. I used 2 coats of wood hardener on my deck board rot amd let set for 24 hours.. Then I added and smoothed out this Epoxy paste. I then waited another 24 hours. This Epoxy paste dried rock solid. I'm sure when dried paint goes on this Epoxy paste well. However, I was using a semi transparent stain on my deck floor and it partially accepted the stain, so it kinda a spit that is unmatched. Overall, I'm happy, I didn't have to replace the deck board with an unseasoned board where I would have had to wait a year to stain. Great product.

I purchased it to seal my front door have pieces of wood missing did the job very well

I was trying to fix my garage vent and the foundation wood was rotted. Mixed equal amounts of paste A and B, you will have around 30 mins working time before it start to dry out. No smells. And you will need Acetone to wipe the surface even or clean your tool (concrete knife; water doesn’t work at all). Leave 24 hrs to dry out, and it will become very hard, hard enough to be sanded, nailed, screwed and painted! Very efficient product!
