I tried trowel, I tried scraper,...

I tried trowel, I tried scraper, I tried burlap. With the grain, against the grain, wiped off after 3 minutes. Nothing usable. Don't waste your time.

I didn't have much luck using...

Steven L from Holly Springs, NC Posted May 11, 2012
I didn't have much luck using a squeegee or putty type of knife so it sat on my shelf for quite awhile. One day I really needed something to fill in a top made of flat sawn Red Oak so I took it down, put on rubber gloves and applied it by hand and it worked like a charm. I put down large dollops and proceded to really work it in with my hands and then would smooth it out leaving a very light film all over and I then allowed it to dry over night. The next day I hit it with the sander and my pores were nicely filled. When I first used it I think I was filling the pores but when I would wipe it or use a squeegee to clean of the excess it would pull out the filler which is why this time I allowed it to completey dry and sanded off the excess.

Fills fairly well disregard the instructions...

Gary H from San Dimas, CA Posted February 17, 2012
Fills fairly well disregard the instructions with a couple of coats. Let dry a couple of days before sanding. The problem is, it's very hard to get a uniform color on unstained wood. When you use poly or shellac slightly amber toned over a sanded filled surface, the hard clear finish must be completely sanded off, or you get a blotchy color. However, that much sanding cuts back down to the filled grain. I've only had some success using this stuff with Crystalac's finish coat product. If you don't really need a water clear finish, use a conventional filler and save yourself a lot of grief.

The problem with this product is...

Guest from Hermosa Beach, CA Posted January 30, 2012
The problem with this product is that you cannot trowel/squeege off all of the filler before you set it to dry, After it drys, by the time you sanded off all of the crystallac you have essentially sanded down to where the filler did not reach to begin with. Also if you don't get all of it off and I mean all, you will have imperfections in your final piece after finishing. Nice idea but not practically possible. Try calling the number on the label sometime if you want some added entertainment/frustration.

Crystalac is very different from other...

Daedalus W from Salem, OR Posted July 1, 2011
Crystalac is very different from other non-water based grain fillers I have used. I thinned it a little bit with water, and spread it on mahogany with a brush. It seemed to fill all the pores really easily, and without much extra help from the brush, which is what I'm used to having to do. I left it on for 15-20 minutes. It stayed really wet for quite a while, maybe because I thinned it a bit. But after about 15-20 minutes it began to set up and became the consistency of pudding. At that point I troweled it off with a plastic scraper. The excess came off really easily without removing any filler from the pores. I was really happy with how cleanly it scraped, it didn't leave behind much for me to sand later. I let it dry for a few hours. Then I sanded away the excess, which wasn't much. And the sanding took me a lot less time than with other fillers I've used. I'm really happy with the results. I can't wait to try using dye for a colored fill!
