Description
Loba EasyFill is a next-generation water-based binder for producing genuine wood filler on site, mixed with the finest available sanding dust from the specific floor being worked on rather than a pre-coloured generic filler. That approach is what gives it such a close colour match — the filler is quite literally made from the same timber it’s repairing, blended into a paste-like, silky putty at a recommended 1:10 ratio of sanding dust to binder.
Its fast drying and excellent sandability are genuine time-savers on a floor sanding job: fine joints can be sanded after just 15 minutes, letting the filling and fine-sanding stages happen in close sequence rather than stretching the job over an extra day. For larger joints or genuine damage from a renovation, overnight drying is recommended instead, and the process can be repeated for particularly large gaps.

Where to Use
- Closing joints and small areas of damage on bonded parquet and hardwood floors
- All common European and exotic wood types
- Not generally suitable for old flooring with oversized, dirty joints or nailed/screwed wooden constructions
How to Apply
- Sand to medium grain — after the medium sand (e.g. 60 grain), before the fine sand (e.g. 100 grain).
- Mix the putty — combine EasyFill with the finest available sanding dust for the wood species, at roughly 1:10 by weight.
- Apply into joints — work the paste into joints and damaged areas, scraping the entire floor before fine sanding.
- Allow to dry — 15 minutes minimum for fine joints, overnight for larger renovation joints.
- Fine sand — completely sand away any remaining putty on the surface after drying.
Important Notes
- The product is ready for use and must not be reduced or thinned.
- For dark wood species, add Mixol universal tinting paint (200ml per 5L EasyFill) and mix sufficient quantity for a continuous surface to avoid colour deviation.
- Optimal processing conditions are room temperature +15°C to +25°C with 40-75% relative humidity.
Making a floor’s own filler from its own sanding dust is a technique that’s easy to describe but genuinely effective in practice — no pre-tinted commercial filler can match the exact colour of the timber it’s repairing the way a filler literally made from that timber’s dust can. It’s part of why EasyFill is specified by flooring professionals over a generic pre-coloured wood filler on visible, high-quality timber floor jobs.
