1. Scrape the surfaces with a notched trowel
By scraping the applied filler material with a notched trowel, you save time smoothing, while reducing filler burrs and thus the sanding effort.

How to save time and money when filling
When it comes to filling, know-how is key. Whether manually or with a spray tool, for small areas or large: here we show you how to apply Brillux filler material correctly and what you will need to do so.
2. Spray application rather than applying by hand
Machine technology can save you a lot of time – up to 40 percent compared to manual application methods – and that includes prep time and cleaning.
3. Mask the spray tool
The devices are ready in just a few simple steps and already pay off for small projects. To minimize the later cleaning effort, machine parts that come into contact with the filler material should be masked with self-adhesive protective film.
4. Use a fiber glass filler nonwoven
The following benefits can be achieved through the use of a fiber glass filler nonwoven:
- increased filling capacity
- reduced number of filling coats
- reduced number of filler burrs
- reduced sanding effort
Depending on the substrate, the use of a fiber glass filler nonwoven can reduce the time required by 25 percent.
5. Smooth from the ground
Up the ladder, down the ladder... this takes a lot of time. When working on the ceiling, attach a broomstick or device handle to the handle socket of a surface filler knife. This saves real time.
6. Use spray filler in exterior areas too
The facade does not need to be filled by hand either. Briplast Teriofill 1883, for example, is not only suitable for indoors, but also for outdoors. Moreover, it can also be efficiently applied with Airless devices.
7. Large containers for large building sites
Brillux filler material is also available in 250 liter “big bags” for filling silos.
- the material does not bind in a closed system
- large quantities of material can be kept at the building site – minimal space needed
- no disposal of packaging material necessary at the building site
- flexible deliveries of extra material from the Brillux branch network

8. Save time with Neofill 1892
If used correctly, three further work steps are eliminated: Neofill 1892 means no need to smooth out, sand or prime.
The perfect professional helpers
Of course, the choice of equipment also helps. For this reason, aside from the full range of filler material, you can also pick up the appropriate tools and filler accessories – from bucket trowel to surface filler knife to notched trowel.
