I am in the process of decorating my house and will of course need some filler for the inevitable cracks, holes , dents in the plasterwork.
I have always trusted the powdered Polyfilla, but was wondering whether the other, some much cheaper options are any better, or are they worse.
Tetrion is obviously another branded powder filler, but there are own brand versions from numerous shops, including Wilkinson's and Morrison's.
Are these worth trying ?
I avoid the ready made up mixtures, pretty much because they seem far more expensive ... and of course, it isn't rocket science to mix up a batch of powder.
Just as a final question, there are cracks between the wall and ceiling .. normally I just mix up a batch of filler, then using my finger only, squeeze the mixture into the corner, then follow up with a wet sponge to clean the excess. is this the best way, or should I be using decorators caulk from a tube.
thanks for any advice provided
