Buying advice

For small holes or cracks, opt for a spackling paste or patch kit. For deep wood repairs, choose a wood filler. Consider drying time, sandability, and if you need a color-change indicator. Larger containers offer better value for multiple repairs. Always check that the product is intended for your surface type (drywall, wood, etc.).
