Silverhook BIG31 Big Boy Plastic Flexi Filler 250ml

Product Information

If you want the fastest-setting filler then I would recommend using a combination of 2 different fillers: Tetrion Powerfil 2K which is a 2-part filler and skimmed with Red Devil Onetime filler. To be brutally honest, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend using a ready-mixed filler. I understand why an amateur DIYer might feel more comfortable using one but I’ve yet to find one that is easy to sand. In my opinion, the time saved from mixing a regular filler is offset by the extra time and effort it takes to sand the ready-mixed filler to a smooth finish. Interior and Exterior Applications: Soudal Fix All Flexi is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, offering versatility for various projects. Dip your finger in a cup or glass of water and ensure it is wet and position it over one end of the caulk (again it’s easier to work top to bottom/left to right). General purpose latex acrylic-based caulks can be used for a wide variety of jobs in the home as it is the general purpose workhorse of fillers. Some common applications are:

Just as the Tetrion Powerfil 2K starts to set, run a thin skim of Red Devil Onetime filler over the 2k.If time is not your friend, I’d definitely recommend trying this combination method. It can be painted over after just 10 minutes. Seriously speedy. Mould Resistant - XS1 Fungicide: Soudal Fix All Flexi is formulated with XS1 fungicide, providing excellent resistance to mould growth. It prevents the formation of unsightly mould and contributes to a hygienic environment.

The filler is of high quality and rarely flashes which means you don’t have to go to the extra effort and cost of spot priming the area that’s been filled. Whilst Gyproc’s Easifill was our best overall choice for fillers, their ready-mixed filler seems to have some flashing issues. Multi-Use: Soudal Fix All Flexi serves as a sealant, adhesive, and filler, offering versatility for various applications. It eliminates the need for multiple products, saving time, and costs. This filler doesn’t sink in as much as the other fillers on the market which means you know how much to use. Interior & Exterior Sealing and Bonding in the Building and Construction Industry: Soudal Fix All Flexi can be used for sealing gaps, joints, and bonding materials in various construction projects. It ensures a durable and flexible seal in both residential and commercial applications.When choosing a caulk or flexible filler, opt for a Acrylic Latex-based caulk (also known as general purpose caulk) as these can be used for a variety of different jobs around the home, are cheap to buy, are fairly fast curing (some in under 60 minutes!) and as mentioned can be painted over with pretty much all paint-types. The reasons for this are two-fold, the first being that they are constructed using a mixture of acrylic, latex and some other components which don’t poses the same extreme flexibility as silicone-based sealants.

Primerless Adhesion: With its primerless adhesion, Soudal Fix All Flexi simplifies the application process, saving time and effort. It adheres to most construction materials without the need for additional primers.

How to apply

Suitable for all Materials and Surfaces (Except on PE, PP and PTFE): Soudal Fix All Flexi is compatible with a wide range of construction materials, making it suitable for various applications. However, it should not be used on PE, PP, and PTFE surfaces. Conducting a preliminary adhesion test on every surface is also recommended to ensure proper performance. If you’re not sure how to apply filler to ceilings and want something flexible, I’d recommend using this product instead. In general a single application caulk can be used to fill gaps around 6-8mm (roughly 1/4 an inch) in width, however for any gaps wider than this a layer of caulk should be applied below the final surface level and allowed to fully cure before a final flush fill layer of caulk is applied. Comes in an easy-to-apply tube which also doubles up as a good way to store the filler for future use.
