I have been trying, without success, to use the LMI pore filler on some koa. I have applied multiple coats at different viscosities without luck. I have tried applying it cross grain, with the grain, and in a circular motion. I have wiped it off while still wet. Waited until completely dry and sanded it off. In the end it still looks like a teenager with a bad comlexion, big ole pores. If anyone uses this stuff I could use some very specific advise on how to apply it, including viscosity, set time and technique. Any advice is much appreciated.

some years ago i used it on a couple eir bodies and hm necks. simply applied across the grain as recommended, let dry overnight and sanded off the next day. worked fine. i did find that when i did the second out of the container i had to wet the filler as it had dried out somewhat.

Had very bad results with it.
