When mixed filler should be easy to spread, unless it is old stock.
I bought some in 2006 (cost £9.25) and did not use it, until this week when I found it hard to spread. I used it all and bought some more.
Same packaging (now costing £14.20) and that was also difficult to spread.
I now understand why, on the top of the 2006 can the batch number is 17809. and on the can sold now (2014) is batch number 17809.
So the stuff they are selling now is what they were selling 8 years ago, and my 2006 stuff could have been 2 years old then.
Filler should have a use by date.
I wont mention the name of the Manufacturer, but it is probably very good at padding plastic and the stuff is the small cans for use below the waterline.
