- Use the scraper provided to press the Selleys Wall Putty filler firmly into the hole. No need to overfill as there is virtually no shrinkage when Wall Putty dries.

Handy Tips

- Prime with a suitable water-based primer before applying top coats. You can paint over Wall Putty with water-based paints after 30 minutes but wait at least 24 hours for oil-based.
- If using outside, protect from rain until dry and painted over with 2 coats of a quality exterior paint.
- Selleys Wall Putty is suitable for repairing cracks and holes on interior surfaces such as walls, ceilings, doors, windows, timber, and primed metal surfaces
