Very smooth filler

[Deleted member 282503]

Hi all

Can anyone recommend a filler for internal walls that can be sanded down to a very smooth printable surface.

I'm hoping there may be a trade product better than pollyfilla?

Thanks

I use https://www.screwfix.com/p/toupret-fine-surface-filler-1-5kg/935jj

Stripped a wall, there was paint underneath that half came off. Looked like Tommy Lee Jones face.

Filled all the holes and scratches. Feathered edges.

Cannot tell. Great stuff. Only good for 1 or 2mm deep or it sinks, but, deeper holes require their normal filler.

Way better than cheap filler.

It kinda depends on your tolerances.

The Toupret fillers are a cut above the likes of Tetrion or Polyfiller powder based fillers (in the main) but any filler that is slightly harder or softer than the existing emulsion will leave a dent or ridge.

I haven't used the particular filler recommended by Jacko though.

Part of the secret is using the right grade of abrasive. The mesh papers (eg Abranet) are often better than standard papers

I've used easyfill a few times.

I use Easifill from time to time but it is incredibly soft, ie not resistant to knocks. Very easy to sand though.
