I Know that Pollyfila is a brand name for a filler.
But is drywall filler or drywall patch.
Is it wood filler?
I have not been able to locate the brand.
I live in the U.S.
Can someone suggest something that might work as a substitute.

Thanks

As another person who lives in the US, I've also had quite a bit of trouble finding Polyfilla. For my terrain projects I've used Dry-wall spackle. It's done the job quite well and is readily available from places like Home Depot. :)

Yup, drywall filler is the same thing as polyfilla. If you go to Ace or Home Depot, or any other DIY store for that matter, you should have no trouble finding some.

...by curiosity, what are you planning to make with the filler? :)

I am going to try to engrave some stone work. I am working on a wind mill. I was going to start a water mill next.

I have some drywall mud and drywall patch left over after some flood damage repair at my mothers house.

I was wondering what would work best.
