    Answer This Question

    A:  Thank you for reaching out, Ronald. Rust-Oleum Varathane Wood Putty can not be sanded because it does not harden. If you need something you can sand and stain, then we suggest using Rust-Oleum Varathane Wood Filler instead. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Varathane-12-oz-Wood-Filler-340228/305626726 -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

      Answer This Question

      A:  We're happy to help, Gene. We believe the color of Rust-Oleum Varathane Wood Putty that closest matches our Briarsmoke Wood Stain is our Dark Walnut. You may also mix different colors different color putties to create a custom color that more closely resembles your surface. Alternately, our Varathane Classic Wood Filler may be used prior to staining, since this is a stainable filler. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

            Q:I used The Varathane American Walnut stain. Wish they made a wood putty to match their stain. I have tried their stick filler. The color doesn't match and the product is too hard. Is there another product out there that would be a close match? Thanks.

              Q:I have a side table that has some cracks all the way across the top. I filled the cracks with wood stain so the crack matches the top. But I would like to fill the crack so that it is flat. Will this wood putty work for that? (Photo taken before staining)
