Easy sanding filler?
Discussion
I'm after a filler that I can use on walls/ceilings that is very easy to sand down. I did have some of this about 5 years ago that I got from a building site I worked on for 9 months, but it's all gone. It was a paste, and was so so easy to sand down (seemed to have some shiny particles in it...) Just to use on little gouges/nicks in plaster, to then emulsion over after...
Does anyone know what stuff is best? Found nothing on PH, but found this (Toupret TX110) on Google. Anyone used it?
Many thanks

Is this stuff really easy to sand? The stuff I had before was almost like chalk once dry...
Thanks for the link btw

So easy to sand that you can use the abrasive side of a kitchen sponge.
It's solid once painted though.

This is the really crumbly white stuff isn't it? If so, I've used it and didn't really like it. I 'm after a proper decorators filler that is easy sanding.So easy to sand that you can use the abrasive side of a kitchen sponge.

Just used this stuff in my flat:

very easy to apply and sands very quick with 120-180 grade paper.
many of the cracks you can't even tell were they are now after a coat of paint.
Not sure if they do smaller tubs though.

I really like it but ymmv.
This is the only one I use now,

And of course being Ronseal, it does what it says on the tin

Trade Poly filler is nice but expensive
Gyproc Easi fill is almost as good and handy if you don't use it that often as it comes in the multi sachets and they last for years.
Joint filler is half the price and works as well as long as you can use 10kg within a year
I think they are all pretty similar in composition and all sand very easily
