It is specially formulated to accept Minwax® penetrating wood stains, including Minwax® Wood Finish, Minwax® Gel Stain and Minwax® Water Based Wood Stain.

Minwax® Stainable Wood Filler is latex based, quick drying, sandable and easy to clean with soap & water.

Directions

1.Surface must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, oil and loose particles.
2.Squeeze a liberal amount of Minwax® Stainable Wood Filler into the area to be filled.
3.Press the filler firmly in place with a putty knife.
4.Fill slightly above surface to allow for sanding while minimizing overspreading on surrounding areas.
5.Allow the filler to dry completely. Dry time will vary depending on depth of area to be filled. Most common shallow repairs will dry within 2 hours. Deeper repairs may need more than one filling and may require 2-6 hours to dry. Let dry between fillings.
