Return to article: How to Repair and Prevent Wood Rot
on 11/22/2005 After 20 years as a professional painter and decorator, I have found that using an epoxy based filler has one major flaw - after a period of time, the wood expands and contracts, but the epoxy does not. This leads to the filler being seen. I would recommend an exterior poly filler, which is rubber or nylon based. This filler tends to expand and shrink better than epoxy fillers, and lasts quite a considerable time longer.
