PC-Woody® Wood Epoxy Paste

PC-Woody® is a two-part epoxy paste from Protective Coating Company that permanently replaces missing and rotted wood. Once cured it can be sawed, drilled, tapped, nailed, screwed, sanded, painted and stained — and it is stronger than most wood.

It is made with real wood filler, cures to a natural wood tone, and does not shrink or crack.

What it is for

• Rotted log ends, window sills and door jambs
• Deck joists, rafters and beams with missing sections
• Columns, decorative trim and moulding
• Knot holes, checks and panel holes
• Interior or exterior, on any wood species

How to use it

• Mix equal parts A and B by volume until the color is uniform.
• Remove all dry rot, dirt, sawdust and loose paint first. The surface must be clean and dry.
• Where soft rotted wood remains, consolidate it with PC-Rot Terminator® before filling with PC-Woody.
• Apply with a putty knife or trowel. Minimum bond line is 1/32 in. on flat surfaces and 1/8 in. on rough or uneven ones.
• Screen wire or wood blocks can bridge and reinforce larger voids.
• To estimate quantity, divide the cavity volume in cubic inches by two. That is roughly the number of ounces you will need.
• Wait one to two days before sanding. Sanding too early gums up the paper. Sand with the grain using medium or coarse grit for the best staining result.
• In cold weather, warm the containers first. Like peanut butter, it mixes and spreads more easily warm.
