Default Filing door frames and nail holes with quark

Hi all,
I've filled a doorframe using quark, they are to be painting white I've filed
with a bit of quark over each nail hole and now realise I've probably made an
error as I can't sand it! Could I put polyfilla over the too to redeem this
prob? Help!

Just add some leptons, and you can make whatever you want.

No its a name for a sort of fat free cottage cheese that looks
remarkably like (and tastes remarkably like) - 'spackle*' - as our US
friends call it.

But then it was posted via homehub, where the average IQ is somewhat
less than the average chimp on Chlorpromazine.

Truth welcomes investigation because truth knows investigation will lead
to converts. It is deception that uses all the other techniques.

Why would you think filling nail holes with a cheese product was a good
idea?

I remember being puzzled by the word 'spackle' the first time I heard
it. A bit of a tinny word, I thought. Not a nice woody word at all.

Anyone mad enough to attempt home repairs using dairy produce deserves
everything they get.

I am assuming that quark is some kind of acrylic decorators caulk, that
stays slightly flexible once set?

If so then you need to tool these flat before they dry. Best you an do
now is use a sharp blade to trim it flush.

I thought he was talking about that annoying space alien character from
Danger Mouse. Perhaps a character inspired by the DS9 one? :-)
