Default Decorating filler expansion

Follow up to an earlier thread where I complained that Polyfilla over
screw heads had expanded.....

On sanding down, the unmistakable smell of resin showed I had actually
used a proprietary wood filler.

I think the MDF window boards had shrunk very slightly but that oil
based paint had *grown* the filler.
