I have not been able to find a good stainable wood filler (or putty). Minwax indicates that their putty is, but it really isn’t. It does fill the nail holes, but I can never seem to get the colors right even when I buy the wax pencils to try to assist. Normally I use Minwax Provincial Stain on my baseboard, pine doors and trim. Could you please help? I’ll bet I’m not the only one with this kind of issue.
