IT is made by DAP and comes in both regular and latex based. They call it Wood Dough. It is a nightmare to use because it is always too gooey or too hard. Acetone does thin it out nicely, but it still cracks when ti dries due to shrinking. You end up having to go over it a few times with thinner layers then sand it. It is only $6 a can, so it is worth a try, but mark my words: it is a pain in the neck.
