Exterior Wood Filler for Front Porch Posts

[sam2023]

Looking for product recommendation:

I'm looking for an exterior wood filler to fill cracks, and rotten out sections (will be sanded) in the timber posts of my front porch.

West facing, so exposed to hot summer sun in the afternoon/evening. I guess this means the filler needs to be flexible.

Also, the posts are to be re-stained with sikkens cetol HLSe, so should be able to stain (note: not a regular paint) after the filler has dried out.

Filler color has to match with the wood

Hi @sam2023,

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is wonderful to have you with us.

Unfortunately, I am not aware of any exterior-grade timber filler that comes pre-tinted.

Your best option is going to be this Polyfilla Exterior Timber Filler, which is an exterior grade, flexible timber filler that will accept timber stains, so assuming your Sikkens Cetol HLSe is one that includes a stain, it will be stained to a similar colour as the rest of the post.

Let me know what you think, and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Jacob
