Best Stainable Wood Fillers - 2017 Guide

A wood filler is any product or substance that helps in the perfection of a wooden object.

Wood filler is specially made to correct or cover flaws in wood by covering nail holes, cracks, small gouges and other wood imperfections.

There are water-based and solvent-based wood fillers; water-based wood fillers can be thinned by adding water while solvent-based are thicker and can be used for bigger jobs like filling cracks.
