Asian Paints SmartCare Crack Seal is a ready-to-use crack filling compound reinforced with fibre glass, for sealing cracks up to 3 mm wide on interior and exterior walls before painting. Cracks are the most common reason a paint job fails early: paint over an unfilled crack and it reappears within a season, often wider because water has got in behind it. Ordinary filler is rigid and cracks again along the same line as the wall moves; the glass fibres hold the filled joint together through that movement. There is no mixing, no ratio and no pot life — open the pack and apply.
Key Features
- Fibre-Glass Reinforced: Resists the crack reopening as the wall moves
- Ready to Use: No mixing, no ratios, no pot life to race against
- Interior and Exterior, Paintable: One product for both, overcoated with your wall paint once cured

How to Fill a Crack Properly
- Open the Crack: Open it out slightly with a scraper or blade so the filler has something to key into — a hairline surface crack filled without opening it rarely holds
- Clean: Remove all loose material, dust and flaking paint from inside and around the crack, and make sure the surface is dry
- Fill: Press the compound firmly in so it fills the full depth, not just the surface, then level it flush with the wall
- Second Layer: A 2-coat system is recommended. Wait 4 to 6 hours before applying a second levelling layer
- Cure: Allow a minimum of 24 hours to cure fully before sanding or painting. Sanding or painting at about 6 hours traps moisture and makes the paint bubble
- Finish: Sand smooth if needed, then prime and paint over the repair
Cracks wider than 3 mm need polymer-modified cement mortar or a specialised sealant. If a crack keeps returning, or runs diagonally across a structural element, stop and have it assessed — a persistent structural crack needs a different remedy, not more filler.

1) Can I just paint over a crack instead of filling it?
No. The crack will reappear through the new paint, usually within a season and often wider, because water gets in behind it. Filling first is what makes a repaint last.
2) Does it need mixing?
No. It is ready to use straight from the pack — no mixing, no ratios and no pot life — which makes it practical for DIY and fast for contractors.
3) What does the fibre-glass reinforcement do?
It resists the crack reopening. Rigid filler cracks again along the same line as the wall moves with heat and moisture; the glass fibres hold the filled joint together through that movement.
4) Which pack size should I buy?
One kg fills about 25 running ft of a 3 mm wide × 5 mm deep crack, so the 360 g tub covers roughly 9 running ft and the 900 g tub roughly 22.5 running ft. Buy the size closest to your need rather than over-ordering.
5) How wide a crack can it fill?
Cracks up to 3 mm wide. Wider cracks need polymer-modified cement mortar or a specialised sealant, not this product.
6) How long before I can sand or paint over it?
Wait 4 to 6 hours between layers, and allow a minimum of 24 hours for the repair to cure fully before sanding or painting. Sanding or painting at the 6-hour mark traps moisture inside the paste and makes the paint film bubble.
