Aqua Coat Water Based High Performance Clear Wood Grain Filler Gel, Great for Home Improvement and DIY Woodworking Professionals, Low Odor, Fast Drying and Stainable, 1 Quart

Easy to work with ... does a great job filling grain of porous woods

It’s an amazing product. So easy to use and clean up. With it being higher in solids, it performs better. It is extremely clear. Works as described and fills the grain great. It says it can be tinted; haven’t tried that yet.

Love this product. Easy to use. No odor. Easy sanding. Easy cleanup. This is a great product to use and it helped me attain the smooth and gorgeous finish on my guitars.

Directions do say to apply thin coats, and by that they apparently mean *very* thin coats. If not, it will crack deeply as it dries.This product is not easy to apply uniformly thin. It's naturally very clumpy. Having tried both this and DAP's Premium Wood Filler, I prefer the latter, because it can go on thicker and not crack. Aqua Coat takes a long time to dry and will crack with deep fissures as it dries if it goes on too thick. Maybe it's good if you just have a tiny area to grain fill, but I don't see myself using it again on bigger projects. In retrospect, I think hot drywall mud would have been a better choice, because it sets very quickly, allowing faster layering, and doesn't crack like Aqua Coat does. It's also far less expensive.My environment is presenlty 70%RH and 70F, and even after two hours of dry time, it's still not dry to the touch. The TDS says it will be dry to the touch after 30 minutes at 50%RH 70F.

Worked. About 60% of the grain was filled. Suggest a squeegee, not credit card to remove excess.
