This is their wood filler. It's about $11.95 per one pound can, but it's 
cheaper if you buy a case.
Very nice people. 
I used perhaps 3/4 of a can for this head, but if I took more care I wouldn't 
have used so much.
It casts beautifully in a plaster mold. I used Rufus Rose's string technique 
to make the mold...   

Just soak the mold before you put in the MendAll.... I let the head 'cure' 
underneath water for a couple of days but it really takes a week or slightly 
less to completely dry.   
Still, I was able to work with it after only three days... That's it. Less 
shrinkage than Plastic Wood but the SMELL is the same. Acetone solvent. 
I love this stuff...
Any questions, please ask....
Best,
Fred
P.S.
I'll send along pictures of the head privately... I'm very pleased.
