Available in three colors, this product
will provide a smooth base for finish topcoats. Product is compatible with most other
finishes, including lacquer, polyurethane and our water base products.
Bartley recommends using the product before staining and sanding the filler
back to the level when it's dry. However, many finishers prefer to use
filler over a light washcoat such as 1 lb. cut dewaxed shellac or thinned
sealer or finish. This minimizes the tendency of the filler to color the
intermediate grain areas and makes the filler easier to apply and wipe off
cleanly. See samples below.

Use the Dark Filler on any wood to
emphasize the grain. To keep the intermediate grain areas as light as
possible use a washcoat (1 pound cut dewaxed shellac or finish thinned to
about 10% solids).

The Light Filler is a reddish-brown
color that will add warmth to walnut and mahogany, particularly when not
used with a washcoat. On mahogany without a washcoat it helps blend the
color of the pores to the intermediate reddish-brown areas.

The Natural Filler is formulated to
dry translucent and fill the grain without adding any color. Under some
finishes it may show as a whitish color so test it on darker woods like
walnut and mahogany. Typically the Natural is used by finishers who like
to custom tint their colors (with our Japan colors). Wash coating has little
aesthetic effect, though it does make the filler easier to wipe off cleanly.
There
are many ways to apply paste wood filler. We prefer to use the following
method.
1. Stain the wood
if you wish. You can use any type of stain that you wish, dye, wiping
stain, gel stains etc. Allow to dry completely
2. Apply a washcoat of 2 lb cut dewaxed shellac or use lacquer
sanding sealer if applying a solvent lacquer like Behlen Qualalacq.
Vinyl sealer can be substituted if your schedule uses it. Allow the seal
to dry.
3. Sand lightly with P320 stearated sandpaper. Go lightly and do
not cut through the sealer or filler
4. Apply the filler with a brush and remove the excess with a
squeegee/leveler or plastic scraper going at a 45 degree angle to the
grain.
5. Let the filler dwell just long enough so that it "hazes" -
typically 15 minutes or so. If the filler is drying too rapidly you can
slow it down with some mineral spirits.
6. Remove the excess filler with burlap or a terry cloth type
towel using it across the grain at first. Then finish up very lightly in
a circular motion.
7. If filler is hard to remove in some areas because it has set
up, moisten a rag with a small amount of Naphtha and remove lightly.
8. Allow filler to dry 48 hours. If waterborne or oil based
finishes are used as the topcoat we recommend sealing the dry filler
with one more application of dewaxed shellac first.

BEHLEN WATER-BASE GRAIN FILLER
-
Behlen's new formulation of this product improves the
application, open time and ease of removal. It's still best to apply this
product to the bare wood, then sand the excess off with 240 grit sandpaper.
"Neutral" is an off-white color while "Brown" is used for darker woods. This
filler will take most stains after application, but not water based stains.
Products can be tinted to any imaginable color using our
ViviTone colorants.

General Glaze Effects Wiping Glaze
-
Glaze Effects
are translucent water based wiping colors used to create decorative finishes
such as distressing, marbling, rag rolling and wood graining.
The most popular use for glazes is over opaque
finishes for "Distressed Paint" finishes. Glaze Effects
can be inter-mixed or layered to
create custom colors. They may also be layered over one another to create
deeper, richer looks. We strongly recommend purchasing the General
Extender
if you
have never worked with water based glazes before.
