Grain Filler

Post by Bob Gleason »

I currently use CA to fill grain, but am always interested in other ideas. If you have tried Solarez Grain Filler, I would be interested in hearing how it went. It is UV cure, which is very fast, and supposed to dry clear. Thanks, Bob

I have not tried Solarez, but I have used Gork's GoodFilla and had good results with it.

I have tried all the new stuff and still prefer old fashioned paste wood pore filler.

I have used Solarez a number of times, with great results. I watched the Highline Guitars YouTube videos where he explains the properties, and how he uses it. I got great results. Just remember that if you try to use it to filll large voids and gaps, it will appear white. As a grain filler, it is clear, but large masses of it will look white.
