With powder filler, you don’t have to worry about wasting or drying the product because you can mix a large or small quantity of powder and let the rest sit idle on the shelf. Most wood fillers can be stained, but it's important to note that wood fillers absorb stain differently from wood, so the color, texture, and appearance of the repaired area could stand out from the rest of the surface. As the filler inundates the pores, it levels any unevenness to achieve a finish particularly desirable on furniture. Small repaired areas go naturally colored in as little as 15 minutes without shrinking or cracking, while deeper voids dry in 2 to 8 hours.

Apply that same product outdoors or to a piece that will live outdoors, such as a patio table, and the filler will be more likely to freeze or harden while wet from exposure to extreme cold or heat, or crack or shrink over time once dry. However, it can be diluted with a bit of warm water to become a more spreadable consistency, although the clay-like consistency makes it very easy to wad into small balls and fill large holes.
