Howdy everybody!

I'm back in the hobby after taking a couple of years off. Dug out a couple of kits this weekend and built them with my 11 year old niece and nephew. I got the bug tonight to start a build myself. My CWF is rock solid.. but it appears they don't make it anymore.
which of their new wood fillers is similar consistency and water based?

Really? I saw some at the hardware store like a month ago... Weird. Better save my tub then!
 
Well that's what had... and can't find now.

There is a new Color Change Wood Filler and Probond Wood Filler. Elmer's dosn't even have the old CWF listed anymore. :(

Hoping to learn if either of the new ones are similar.

I like the color changing stuff, personally. You can tell when it's time to sand, and with bigger blobs I can see when I need to stop and let it dry some more. Home depot has the DAP brand and it's all I use any more.
 
Quite the contrary, CLICK HERE

You sure about that one ? I always recommend avoiding the ones that contain "real wood fibers". Too gritty and even harder to sand than regular cwf. I like Tonimus' link better and other TRFers have reported satisfactory results with the color change stuff.
 
Don’t use the Elmer’s Pro stuff. It’s terrible.

EWE! That's not the link I thought I posted at all. That "Stainable" is too darn tough to sand. My bad. Nice catch Samb. Nonetheless, We still have access to that Plain Jane wood filler as always.
