Dap Inc 582 Plastic Wood Latex Wood Filler 6 Oz

Product Description

The DAP INC 582 is a latex-based plastic wood filler designed to repair surface defects in wood and painted surfaces. This 6 oz container delivers a ready-to-use compound that fills cracks, gouges, holes, and other imperfections with a result that looks and acts like real wood. The formula is stainable and paintable once dry, making it suitable for finish work where appearance matters. Low odor and water cleanup make it practical for use in occupied spaces and enclosed areas. Licensed contractors and skilled tradespeople rely on it for fast, clean repairs without solvent-based complications.

This filler is applied to wood surfaces including furniture, woodwork, molding, cabinets, paneling, plywood, windows, and doors. It also bonds to previously painted surfaces, extending its use to touch-up and renovation work. The latex base allows the filler to be sanded, stained, or painted to match surrounding finishes. It is well suited for interior millwork repairs, cabinet restoration, and pre-paint prep on wood trim in both residential and light commercial settings. Carpenters, finish contractors, and general tradespeople are the typical installers.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical — clean the repair area of loose material, dust, and contaminants before applying the filler. Apply with a putty knife or flexible applicator, slightly overfilling the void to allow for shrinkage during drying. Allow to fully cure before sanding flush and applying stain or paint. Follow applicable local building and finish codes when performing repairs on exterior or structural wood elements.
