Filling in skirting boards

Hi,

I need to fill in the holes in my skirting boards that were left from the nails after they were put in. What is the best product to do this -polyfiller? The skirting is MDF.

Thank you,

Adam

I have used two pack Easi Sand car filler on mdf, if it has only been primed (would probably react with old paint) For those nail holes, mix it in small batches - quick and easy to finish.

cheers buddy, it has already been painted but the painter disappeared without finishing!

Overkill.

This will do fine.

Yep, will do the trick too.
I prefer the car filler personally as you just mix what you want and the finish on MDF is great. I always keep a tin in the kit for emergencies and as long as the two parts are not mixed, it will never go off.
