Overview:

Toupret Interior Filler 1kg is a professional powder filler for repairing walls and ceilings indoors. It fills to any depth in a single coat, removing the need for multiple passes. The formula will not shrink or slump, so repairs stay flush with the surrounding surface. This filler sets in 30 to 40 minutes and requires no spot priming before you paint. It sands smoothly and will not flash or grin through subsequent coats. Once dry, it accepts any paint, filler, or wall coating directly.

Toupret Interior Filler holds an A+ Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) classification, making it a sound option for occupied homes and workspaces. It bonds to a wide range of internal substrates, from gypsum plaster to breeze blocks. Tools clean up with water after use.

Key Features and Benefits

• One-coat fill: Fills holes and cracks to any depth in, reducing labour time on site.
• No spot priming needed: Apply paint directly over the filled area without an intermediate primer coat.
• Will not shrink or slump: Repairs stay level with the surface as the product dries, avoiding the need for secondary top-up coats.
• Will not flash or grin: Dry repairs remain hidden under paint, even at high sheen levels.
• Sands smoothly: The dry filler responds well to sanding, producing a clean, flat finish ready for decoration.
• Fast setting: Working time of 30 to 40 minutes suits a productive workflow without unnecessary delays.
• Ready to paint in 12 to 24 hours: Overcoat once the filler is fully dry, subject to coat thickness and site conditions.
• A+ IAQ classification: Meets stringent indoor air quality standards, suitable for residential and commercial interiors.
• Wide substrate compatibility: Adheres to gypsum plaster, plasterboard, old painted surfaces, cement, concrete, breeze blocks, bricks, and stone.
• Compatible with all finishes: Overcoat with any paint, filler, or wall coating once dry.
• Easy mixing: Simple 50% water-to-powder ratio mixes to a smooth, workable consistency with no specialist equipment.
• Easy clean-up: Wash tools with water immediately after use.

Typical Applications

• Filling cracks: Repairs hairline to medium cracks in plaster, plasterboard, and painted walls.
• Filling holes: Fills screw holes, nail holes, and other small openings in walls and ceilings.
• Deep repairs: Suitable for larger voids with no maximum fill depth, applied in a single coat.
• Surface preparation: Smooths uneven areas on interior walls and ceilings ahead of painting or wallpapering.
• Renovation work: Prepares old plastered or painted surfaces for redecoration without full replastering.
• Multi-substrate repairs: Used on breeze blocks, concrete, cellular concrete, and brickwork as well as plaster-based substrates.

How to Use

• Prepare the surface: Remove any loose material, dust, grease, or flaking paint from the area to be filled. The substrate must be stable and free from contamination.

• Mix the filler: Add 500ml of clean water at room temperature per 1kg of powder (a 50% ratio). Pour the powder into the water and stir thoroughly until you reach a smooth, lump-free consistency.

• Apply the filler: Use a coating blade, wall scraper, or trowel to press the mixed filler firmly into the repair. There is no limit on fill depth, so you can complete deep repairs in one pass.

• Allow to set: Leave the filler undisturbed for 30 to 40 minutes to set. Do not apply below + and keep relative humidity below 70%.

• Sand and decorate: Once fully dry (12 to 24 hours, depending on coat thickness and ambient conditions), sand the repair smooth. Overcoat with your chosen paint or wall coating - no spot primer required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Can Toupret Interior Filler be used on exterior surfaces?
  No. This product is formulated for internal use only. Applying it to exterior surfaces may cause the repair to fail due to exposure to moisture and weathering.

• What is the shelf life of Toupret Interior Filler?
  The product is guaranteed for 12 months from the date of purchase, provided it is stored in its original, unopened packaging and kept away from damp conditions.

• Can I store mixed filler for later use?
  No. Once mixed with water, the filler has a working time of 30 to 40 minutes. Mix only what you need for each session and discard any unused material.

• How do I get the smoothest finish when sanding interior filler?
  Allow the filler to dry fully - at least 12 hours - before sanding. Use a fine-grit abrasive and work in light, even strokes. Sanding too early or with coarse paper can pull or tear the surface.

• Does interior filler need sealing before wallpapering?
  Toupret Interior Filler does not require spot priming before paint, but when wallpapering, it is good practice to apply a diluted size or primer coat over filled areas. This prevents the absorbent patch from pulling moisture out of the paste prematurely.
