Repair Care Resin Systems vs Two-Pack fillers

We believe it is by making the right choices.

You have a timber window frame showing signs of wear and tear, rot in the corner, wood crumbling before your eyes. The cost of replacing it is out of the question. You want to preserve what remains, lessening what goes into the landfill and reducing the demand for UPVC items, so repair it is. Standing in the aisle surrounded by options, tins, tubs, and packages the choice is overwhelming. Do you go for the standard two-pack filler or try something else?

Two Pack Filler – The Wrong Choice

Take your window frame, for example, that needs more than a little TLC. You use the generic two-pack filler, after all, it has been around for years and is cheap as chips. Prep work completed layer after layer after layer is applied. Time spent waiting for each fill to dry, trying to sculpt and sand it into a favourable shape, hoping it has stuck securely in place. A short time goes by a few months, maybe even weeks and the cracks appear.

Timber is a natural substance that uniquely adapts to its environment, expanding and shrinking, with moisture and temperature changes. Two-pack fillers are rigid polyesters that dry to leave a brittle, often shrunken material. When used in timber repair, the end result often fails with moisture seeping in between the newly made cracks. Time, money, and effort are wasted, and the job needs to be repeated again and again, and again.
