Dalapro Fine Ready-Mixed Finishing Filler - 3L

Dalapro Fine is a white, ready-mixed, fine-grained filler for walls and ceilings, the kind of tub a decorator keeps in the van and a homeowner keeps under the stairs. Use it for nail holes, hairline cracks, dents and scuffs, gaps round sockets and the last smoothing coat over patches, plasterboard joints and old paint before you decorate. It goes on straight from the 3 litre tub with a filling knife, spreads easily, dries white and sands to a smooth, paint-ready finish.

The 3 litre tub suits a room or two of repairs, or up to about 3 square metres of skimming at 1mm. It is the handy size for redecorating a bedroom or hallway, and for patchers who want a fine finishing filler on every job. Deeper holes are best filled in two or more layers, letting each dry first.

Why choose Dalapro Fine

• Ready mixed, no water, no mess, no waste
• Dries white for fewer coats of paint
• Smooth consistency, easy to spread and easy to sand
• Fine 0.15mm grain for a smooth, invisible repair
• Works on most indoor substrates: plaster, plasterboard, concrete and painted walls
• About 1 litre covers 1 square metre at 1mm

How to use

1. Brush out dust and loose material and make sure the surface is dry and the room is above 5°C.
2. Press the filler in with a filling knife and smooth it off level with the wall.
3. Let it dry fully. Drying depends on depth, temperature and ventilation.
4. Sand smooth with 100 to 120 grit, dust off, then paint. Prime first if you are wallpapering.

Clean the knife in water before the filler dries. Keep the lid on and store frost-free; unopened packs keep for 12 months.
