thank you, what a help! I am repairing a wooden cabinet in my garden and I will be using this product...a lifesaver...by the way, I tried to hire someone to fix the cabinet and no takers, so I am doing it and I am a 91 year old lady....your video is just what I needed.

Whoa! This video is the type of info I needed in figuring out how to fix some mayor water damage on our mobile home siding down below our back entrance door. The chunks I removed are uneven, and I did not want to do a cut-out to fit a board. This product will do perfectly. Thanks!

@trilbyarnold3341 2 года назад

Wish I had known about this 6 weeks ago. I'm an 80 yo woman who has been repairing and painting the exterior of my manufactured home. About 4 inches up from the bottom of the siding had rot because a workman in the past had not caulked trim boards. I covered the damage with elastimer paint and new trim boards, properly caulked, but there were places where holes remained. I filled these with plastic wood putty. The system you have shown here would have made all the repairs of damaged wood so much easier and cleaner. I will keep it in mind for the future.

@acgensler27 2 года назад

Just bought my first home and there are a few areas of wood rot such as this - this video is so easy to follow and I've ordered by kit off amazon so I can try to do some minor fixes on our next string of sunny days. Thank you for this, as for those of us without carpentry tools and skills-> this is probably going to (no joke) save me at least $1,000 from our local handy man companies (much less having a contractor come out to do the fixes). Thank you!

@manchesterexplorer8519 Год назад

Repair it correctly , any wood putty or filler product is just a band aid especially the soffit repair " which will not last " unless it's just a small insect hole you're filling . The repair in this video could be repaired with a new trim board in under 30 minutes and it's not as expensive as you think . People have no problem paying a Garage $70+ per hour to have a vehicle worked on . Your home is the same thing , the difference is your home is also an investment so you will get your money back in the long run .

@LongToad Год назад

@@manchesterexplorer8519 You're probably right, it would also probably be cheaper vs that much putty. -I think it's a matter of time/laziness over anything. Even if doing it right takes the same amount of time it's still harder work for a lot of people. I think his method uses far too much wood epoxy to be fair though. It would be far cheaper to spray some spray foam in there first then (after it dries) add a desired layer of wood epoxy on top (cut into the foam a little if you want a thicker wood epoxy layer). I've done this in the past as a temporary fix that lasted 10+ years, I just used a hand saw to level the spray foam and coated it with some caulk (rather than wood filler).

@manchesterexplorer8519 Год назад

@@LongToad I understand what this video is about as I get it as I'm a contractor . Foam is another way for a homeowner to fix things as well . But as an experienced contractor I see a very simple repair that could be had for about $20 in material and about 30 minutes of labor tops . I also understand that every homeowner doesn't own the power tools nor has the knowhow to fix something like this . This is why I stay busy 👍

To match your rough surface wood texture after you apply and smooth out your repair patch material you can use a piece of cedar board or if you’re using T111 siding you can use a scrap piece of the siding. Put a piece of wax paper over your board and screw it down on the surface over your repair patch area, around the corner if you want, to square it up. It will leave all the new material put in there with the same wood grain texture that you have on the surface of the board you’re attaching to it.

I’ve used a similar product for a rotted door jam. When they installed the door they never put in Z flashing. Removing the entire jamb was a huge job. I was in no mood. I bought a spray hardner and the stuff worked well. I built out the opening then used the epoxy mix. It’s been four years and it still looks brand new.

There are wood grain tools that you can run across the surface when it's wet to simulate wood grain. Good video.

@grizzlygrizzle 2 года назад

I have used a steel toothed brush comb, the kind of teeth that look like little awls. It's all about varying the angle of the handle relative to the direction you're sliding it along, so that the slight grooves carved by the teeth are variably farther apart and closer together. Do it when the epoxy is about half set, and leave any crumbs alone-- they will sand off later.

@SuperRogers2000 Год назад

Thanks for your video showing this product. I will be looking to purchase it for my house. Do think WD40 , even though it does smooth out the surface when using a spreader, it surely must compromise the strength somewhat as it mixes in. I have a log house and when trying to apply the chinking, I use alcohol. this does the same thing and evaporates fully leaving no residue. This also works great when running beads of caulk. I like to tool the bead with my finger so I fill a small cup with alcohol and dip my finger in it, then smooth out the bead. It slides so well without pulling the product.
