Overview:

Toupret Exterior Quick Fill is a ready-mixed, lightweight filler built for one-coat exterior repairs. It will not shrink or slump, and accepts paint in as little as 1 hour after application. Rich in resin, it bonds firmly to a wide range of outdoor substrates without the need for a primer or sealer.

The paste consistency makes it easy to apply using a filling knife, putty knife, or trowel. There is no depth restriction on application thickness, so it handles anything from hairline cracks to deeper surface voids in a single pass.

Once dry, Quick Fill Exterior is compatible with all water-based masonry paints and mineral coatings. If a polyurethane or solvent-based epoxy finish is planned, first apply a water-based exterior primer coat over the filled area.

Key Features and Benefits

• Ready to paint in 1 hour: Dramatically cuts waiting time between filling and finishing on exterior jobs.
• No shrinkage or slumping: Stays exactly where applied, leaving a flush, stable surface after drying.
• Ready mixed: Supplied as a paste - open the tub and apply straight away with no mixing required.
• Rich in resin: Resin content adds strength and improves adhesion to the substrate.
• No depth limitation: Fill shallow cracks and deeper voids in one coat without layering.
• No need to seal the substrate first: Can be applied directly to most exterior surfaces without a bonding primer.
• Broad substrate compatibility: Adheres to gypsum plaster, cement, concrete, breeze blocks, bricks, stone, cellular concrete, and old painted surfaces.
• Adhesion tested to EN 16-566: Achieves a minimum filler-to-substrate bond of >0.8 MPa.
• Wide overcoating range: Works under all water-based masonry paints, waterproofing coatings, and Toupret exterior fillers.
• Lightweight formulation: Reduces fatigue during application and makes feathering out at edges easier.
• 12-month product guarantee: Guaranteed from date of purchase when kept in its original, sealed packaging.

Typical Applications

• Crack repairs: Filling hairline to medium cracks in rendered or masonry exterior walls.
• Gap filling: Closing gaps around window and door reveals on exterior elevations.
• Surface voids: Repairing pitted, spalled, or weathered patches on brick, stone, and concrete.
• Pre-decoration preparation: Levelling exterior walls ahead of painting or coating.
• Breeze block and concrete repairs: Filling blow holes and surface defects on blockwork or cast concrete.
• Old painted surfaces: Patching previously painted exterior substrates without stripping back to bare material.
• Cellular concrete repairs: Spot-filling voids and damaged sections in lightweight concrete panels.

How to Use

• Prepare the surface: Remove all loose material, dust, and debris from the area to be filled. The surface must be hard, sound, clean, and dry before application.

• Apply the filler: Using a filling knife, putty knife, or trowel, press Quick Fill Exterior firmly into the crack or void. Apply liberally, working the paste into any small cavities as you go.

• Level the surface: Pass the blade over the filled area in different directions to leave it flush with the surrounding substrate. Avoid applying below 5°C or above 35°C, and do not apply if the relative humidity exceeds 80%.

• Allow to dry: Leave the filler to dry fully before overcoating. In average conditions, the surface is ready to paint within 1 hour. Drying time varies with temperature, coat thickness, and ambient humidity.

• Sand if necessary: Once dry, lightly sand the filled area if needed, then dust off before applying paint. Always wear a dust mask when sanding. Wear gloves and eye protection throughout the process.

• Paint: Overcoat with any water-based masonry or mineral paint. If using a polyurethane or solvent-based epoxy paint, first apply a water-based exterior primer to the filled area.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• How long does Toupret Quick Fill take to dry before painting?
  In typical conditions, the filler is ready to paint within 1 hour of application. However, drying time depends on temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the coat applied. Always check the surface is fully dry and hard to the touch before overcoating.

• Can Exterior Quick Fill Ready Mixed be used in cold weather?
  Do not apply this product at temperatures below 5°C or above 35°C. Working outside these limits affects adhesion and drying performance. Avoid application if frost is forecast before the filler has fully dried.

• Does this filler need a bonding primer before use?
  In most cases, no sealer or bonding primer is required before applying Quick Fill Exterior. It bonds directly to sound, clean, and dry substrates, including unpainted and previously painted exterior surfaces.

• What paints can be used over Toupret Quick Fill (Touprelex)?
  All water-based masonry paints, mineral paints, and waterproofing coatings are compatible. If you plan to use a polyurethane or solvent-based epoxy paint, apply a water-based exterior primer over the filled area first before finishing with your chosen topcoat.

• Is there a limit on how thick Exterior Quick Fill can be applied?
  There is no maximum depth restriction for this product. It can be applied in a single coat to fill both shallow cracks and deeper voids without the requirement for multiple layers or build-up coats.
