Hi. My nephew has built me some plywood kit. I need to buy some woodfiller/sealer to fill/seal some imperfections.
Could someone please recommend what product they use

I use Wickes plastic resin/two part wood filler and .. any external wood filler.

Once they have dried, the chances of any gassing after a week is in my view minimal. And as I build almost evrything from grotty wood, I use a bit of filler.

PVA glue mixed with sawdust is good as well.. takes ages to harden.

My bees have survived last winter and my filler has not fallen out - yet.

Polyurethane glue - which expands as it sets is ideal for filling imperfections in joints...and I have lots of imperfections -(as my wife will testify giving a long list on demand :)
 
Thanks for the advice
I had been advised to use a two part filler but wanted to check it was bee friendly
