Exterior wood filler for small gaps in window frames

[DIYNotIan]

Hi all

Sorry for the basic question..... I'm looking for an exterior wood filler. It's for small gaps, etc in my window frames.

Can anyone recommend a decent product? I seem to remember that car body filler can be used?

I'll be overpainting with a WB paint.

Cheers

Max

Curiously enough, Isopon elastic is a wonderful exterior filler, and moves in the way it should....obviously it needs painting over though.

For round the beading just use decorators caulk. For the nail holes go for putty.

What kind of caulk would you recommend please?

And what would be the advantages/disadvantages of using caulk instead of wood filler?

I tend to use Evo stick caulk. The benefits of caulk for this instance is that it is flexible, easy to apply and cheap.
