Want to use this to fill a whole where a screw is always coming loose. After drying will I be able to put a new screw in the filled whole?

no, but better yet jam it with many many toothpicks. that stuff is no hard epoxy will do

do i have to mix the entire container at once?

this product comes complete; no mixing, just stirring; you can use as little or as much as you need. Don't keep the container open for long periods of time to avoid drying out the product

Is this OK for outdoors?

Yes, it is ok for outdoors, but will be better to apply on it oil base primer then paint.

Will this fill cracks in a wood deck?

It could. Ideally you'd want to sand the area(s) down to expose the wood, fill the area, let it dry, sand and finally seal the filler and surrounding area appropriately. I have used this outside and its holding its own.

Excellent product! Works flawlessly. Dries quickly and sands smoothly. Once sanded properly and either stained or finished, it doesn’t show.

Arrived hard as a rock. Useless. Product might have been good if I ever got to use it

Me gusto, tiene fibras de madera, pero su grano no es tan fino, por lo que no sirve para pequeños detalles. Es facil de lijar, y se puede entintar
