Testimonial Review
Buttonwood Renovations has used the Smith and Company CPES and fill it for over 25 years. We have found the CPES epoxy the best consolidant and the Fill It paste adhesive filling products to be superior to all others. Every restoration crew member on my team stocks it in their vehicles. The penetration of the CPES can be used as a stand alone product to reinvigorate dry , potentially vulnerable wood and as a primer. It is also the “root” system for further applications of the Fill It when a structural fill is necessary.The Fill It can also be used solely as an adhesive to re bond tile, bricks and wood products.Both were used extensively on the sash restoration prior to install and on the Ellis House tower for architectural trim, sashes and corner boards.We use both products on our museum house restorations and our privately owned historic homes.

Awesome product! I discovered it while working on my boats and use it alot in construction. I used it on a set of doors I built for my garden shed and they still look beautiful 3 years later. It’s pretty nasty stuff when using it so use it outside or a well ventilated area and use gloves and respirator.
Using this stuff years ago under the front deck…I believe I had a 60’s flashback…felt real good
Good stuff but highly toxic. Keep pets away and yourself protected.
Fumes are nasty as it cures, so wear a respirator, not just a dust mask. Careful about getting it on your skin, it burns. I coated the bottom of my Lyman when restoring which was too big to flip, so I bought a cheap Harbor Freight full face mask. Worked great at protecting me from chemical burns and just throw it away when done.
Used and loved the stuff for years. Don’t forget the FILLIT stuff they sell…super for fill and repair. John in VA
