Skill Builder Guides & reviews for building and construction
Dunlop has launched a brand new rapid-drying filler as an addition to its Pro Décor range.
Now available at builders and decorators merchants across the country, Rapid Rescue Repair Filler, with Hydroloc is suitable for quick fix or emergency repairs.
Available in 1kg bags, the rapid-drying filler helps decorators sort out the multitude of problems often faced before applying paint or wallpaper without having to wait hour or days to complete a job.
Fully dry and hard in 90 minutes, whatever the temperature or conditions, Rapid Rescue is useful for filling chases, cracks around doors and coving, large cracks and holes. It can be used internally or externally, on the majority of backgrounds from plasterboard to concrete steps, to reliably fill and repair damage up to 50mm deep.
Hydroloc technology
Rapid Rescue contains Hydroloc technology which works by using the mix water as part of a chemical reaction to dry the filler instead of relying on water evaporation. This means that the product dries quickly and evenly regardless of thickness. After 20 minutes the product starts to begin its hardening process and can be easily cut or carved – useful for repairing a missing piece of skirting board.
Once dry and hard, the rapid-drying filler can be sanded down, but you can also simply smooth it over with a damp sponge to achieve a perfect finish due to its super-fine formulation.
