Knock On Wood
Knottec® turns damaged or imperfect timber into showroom‑finish wood in minutes. Hot‑melt filler sticks — available in 17 wood‑matched shades — flow into knots, cracks, gaps and voids with a professional glue gun, then cool quickly so you can trim, sand and finish straight away.

Knottec blends invisibly, works fast, and gives long‑lasting results.
