Wondertex Prem Filler is a high-quality, plaster-based, fast-setting jointing compound specifically formulated for the bedding and filling of drylining tapes, external metal angles, and corner tapes in plasterboard installations.

Features

  • Plaster-Based Formula: Provides excellent adhesion and compatibility with plasterboard, ensuring strong and durable joints.
  • Fast Setting: Designed for quick drying, allowing for earlier sanding and subsequent application of finishing compounds (like Wondertex Prem Finish), which significantly speeds up project completion times.
  • Working Time (60-90 minutes): Offers a good working window for mixing, application, and embedding tapes, providing sufficient time for skilled application without rushing.
  • Super Fine Consistency: When mixed correctly with water, it produces a very fine, lump-free consistency that leads to an exceptionally smooth finish, minimizing the need for extensive sanding.
  • Minimal Shrinkage & No Cracking: Formulated to reduce shrinkage as it dries, which prevents cracks and ensures a consistently flat and stable surface, reducing callbacks and re-work.
  • Effortless Sanding: Dries to a consistency that is relatively easy to sand, contributing to a smooth final surface that is ready for painting or wallpapering.
  • Easy to Mix & Apply: Requires only the addition of clean water and is designed for hand application, making it straightforward to prepare and work with on site.
  • Versatile Taping Compatibility: Ideal for use with perforated paper tapes, self-adhesive scrim tapes, and metal angle tapes for various joint and corner applications.
  • 12.5kg Bag Size: A practical quantity for both small to medium-sized projects and for ensuring consistent material supply on larger jobs.

Applications

Wondertex Prem Filler is an essential product for drylining professionals and plasterers in various applications:

  • Bedding and Filling Tapered Edge Plasterboard Joints: The primary use, where it's applied to the joint trough, tape is embedded, and then covered with another layer to create a seamless joint.
  • Bedding External Metal Angle Beads: Used to securely fix and cover metal corner beads, ensuring strong and sharp external corners.
  • Bedding Internal Corner Tapes: For creating clean and durable internal angles in plasterboard installations.
  • Repairing Minor Plasterboard Damage: Can be used to fill deeper indentations and small areas of damaged plasterboard before finishing. (For extensive damage, a patch of new board is recommended).
  • Preparation for Finishing Compounds: Forms the base layer for subsequent application of Wondertex Prem Finish (or similar finishing compounds) to achieve a paint-ready surface.
