Not had opportunity to use them as yet but sure they will perform well
These wax sticks are exactly what I needed. Was surprised at how well they worked to be honest as I wasn’t putting much hope on them achieving what I needed, however they exceeded my expectations
Treated badly cracked thwarts with this. Needed to melt the wax into some white spirit to make a cream that could be applied with a putty knife and then buffed up the next day. Did a great job but was a bit of a fiddle getting the wax/solvent ratio just right. Colour match was perfect, so I didn't even have to blend different coloured sticks together.
This product did the job, although I had to buy several colours and mix them to get a good match, so was expensive for such a small amount needed. I think this company should supply sample packs to help with colour matching as the colours never look the same online as they do in reality. Also, if there is a small job where several colours need to be mixed, the cost would be more reasonable if the packs were smaller.
Good quality product that is straight forward to use. The wax covered up a split in an oak dining table very successfully, the wax was mixed with a previously purchased light oak wax together the match of the oak was excellent.
I need a little bit of wood filler before applying wood protection to my oak doors. This stuff I'd brilliant, matches perfect and easy to use.
Good product easy to use. Also easy to blend colours
Needed to fill in this review to be able to submit the others, but I haven't used it yet, so who knows!
I scraped and heated this product but found it difficult to use in small enough amounts. I ended up buying Liberon crayons, which for someone of my abilities were easier to apply. They also came in three shades per pack so easier to match shades
Hello Mr Jeffery, The wax filler sticks can be a little tricky to use but once you get a feel for it it can be an effective filler for fine scratches and dents. I am please you were able to complete your project in the end and if there is anything that I can do to help please do feel free to get in touch. Kind Regards Samantha.
The sticks are pretty thin and short but work fine.Perhaps better for smaller jobs where 'using the stub of the pencil' won't get ridiculous too quickly.I'd personally prefer 1 larger block to 3(?) small sticks as I apply the stuff firmly and quickly cross-grain like an eraser then buff with the grain using a cloth on a flat block.
The wax was easy to use and melt in order to soften so that it filled a damage to the veneer where a new oak door had to be cut. Very difficult to spot the repair.
Good colour and adhesion, easy to use
Excellent for ease of use and finish
Great quality product, one of the best on the market
I used this to fill small gaps on some laminate wardrobes which worked really well. As long as the sticks are warm it works in easily.
it is very difficult to use
Hello Mr Hassan, Thank you for taking the time to write a review on the filler sticks. They can be a little tricky to use at times if you are not used to working with the wax. Many people find it easier to melt with a lighter/candle and work the wax in with a credit card or something similar. If you have any questions or would like advice on an alternative filler to use please feel free to call in and speak to one of our friendly advisers. Our free phone number is 0800 7818 123. Kind regards Sam.
Took about 2 minutes to fill a couple of really deep scratches on the head of my bed (not caused by anything or anyone interesting, just sloppy movers unfortunately). Anyway, it worked perfectly, has a dull appearance when first applied but easily polishes up to nice finish.
A good range of colours for all wood finishes.A soft wax that will easily fill cracks and small dents.You won't notice where the marks were.
Good product made by Morrell's would use again
After a little trial & error we decided the easiest method to melt the wax was with a hairdryer. It was very effective in filling the gaps in our maple wood floor & we are pleased with the result. Much cheaper tha the quote we had from local carpenters!,
Poor match to online image
Hello Patrycja, Its disappointing to hear that you did not get on with the Filler sticks. Colours in the wood finishing industry can be difficult for there are so many varients including the camera that takes the photos, the computer screen resolution that each individual views and the effect that the wood that you apply it to. Our Colour tabs are there as a guide only and we always recommend test areas. The good thing about these wax filler sticks is that they can be mixed to create alternate colours and tones. If you would like any help or advise with how to do this please feel free to give us a call to discuss further on 0800 7818 123. Kind regards Wood Finishes Direct.
I used this on the back of a violin to fix a scrape from my shoulder rest. It is visible, as the colour were hard to match, but I think the wood is protected from further damage, which was the point.
Although I can still see the scratches on my chair, they are now less distinct. It works better on larger scratches, as the wax is thick and does not get into tiny scratches.
Although a little harder than other sticks, warm on a saucer over a cup of hot water to make them more malleable. When cooled they are a better finish than other softer sticks.
These proved to be perfect for filling woodworm holes after suitable treatment. It took me a while to work out that the best technique is to cut the stick into thin sticks and then melt the end with a soldering iron so that the wax runs into the hole and solidifies. Excess can then be scraped off with a knife.
Once I figured out how best to fill the gaps (my bakery table top is old and uneven) I got used to how the wax worked. I'm very happy with the results, colour matches well and it's withstanding the heavy use the table gets.
Does the job really well! Fills the scratches in.
One of the many virtues of Manns Wax Filler sticks is the ability to blend then and match an exact colour finish.
The bain of blue jeans are the studs. They scratch and catch and soon your chairs look like the've been scrubbed with a wire brush. Now with Manns Wax Fillers and a bit of elbow grease (the wife's not mine) we have six beautifully restored chairs
Easy to use and good colour match on light oak coffee table. I only needed a small amount and the pack provides two decent sized pieces of wax - will be looking for other uses!
Haven't actually used as only bought in case it was needed for colour matching. However the light oak worked a treat so am guessing it's similar quality.
Delivered the very next day. Fantastic service. Dave Smith.
