Recommended Filler for Plaster cracks

bucko77

Hi All

Just having some work done in our house and it has caused a few hairline cracks in a couple of places upstairs. Not sure what the best product is to use to repair these. Is it the ready mixed filler or pre-mixing or anything else. There seem to be so many products to use?!!

Thanks

I use One Strike and find it great.

With hairline cracks i would rake them out with a thin screwdriver or similar weapon, sand and then fill with ready mixed polyfilla from a tube applied with an old credit card and scraping off as much excess as poss while wet. Sand down when dry and repeat for any small areas you may have missed. Sandpaper on a block is fine for small areas but an electric sander is better if there is much to do.

This sort of work depends more on the time and effort spent than the product used for perfect results.

easifill is the best, not the cheapest but gives the best finish because its so fine.
