Overview:

Toupret Extra Fine Surface Filler is a ready-mixed interior filler designed to smooth over small defects and fine cracks. It delivers an exceptionally smooth finish on new and renovated substrates without the need to spot prime. Apply it straight from the tub using a blade, trowel, or filling knife at up to 1mm thickness, or up to 2mm in localised areas.

Once applied, the filler dries to a bright white finish and can be painted over in around 8 hours. It adheres directly to painted surfaces and will not flash or bleed through the topcoat, making it a solid choice for preparation work ahead of painting or decorating.

The product carries an A+ Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) rating, meaning it has very low emissions of volatile substances. With a VOC content of less than 0.02%, it is suited to occupied or sensitive indoor environments. It is guaranteed for 12 months from purchase when stored away from sunlight and frost.

How to Use

• Prepare the substrate: Make sure the surface is hard, clean, dry, and sound. Follow current trade practices for surface preparation.

• Check conditions: Do not apply below 8°C or above 35°C, or where relative humidity exceeds 70%.

• Apply the filler: Use a filling knife, blade, or trowel to apply the filler in a thin, even layer. The recommended thickness is up to 1mm, with up to 2mm acceptable in localised areas.

• Allow to dry: Leave until the filler is completely hard and dry to the touch. Drying time varies based on substrate, coat thickness, and ambient conditions.

• Sand if required: Once dry, sand back to a smooth finish. Wear a P2 dust mask when sanding.

• Overcoat: Paint or apply a wall coating after approximately 8 hours. The filler is compatible with all Toupret fillers and any type of paint or wall coating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Do I need to prime before applying Toupret Extra Fine Surface Filler?
  No. This filler does not require spot priming before application or before overcoating. It bonds directly to the substrate and will not flash or grin through the topcoat.

• How long does the filler take to dry before painting?
  You can paint over it in around 8 hours on average. However, this depends on the thickness of the coat, the substrate type, temperature, and humidity levels.

  Yes. It adheres to old painted surfaces, including those with a high sheen, without the need to sand down or re-prime first.
