Grain fillers: Enduro or Target HSF5100

Anyone here used both? If so, which do you like best? I'm considering
trying a clear filler. I figure on application order of dye, filler,
sealer, and top coats, on red oak. I've not been happy with the opaque
filler I've used.

Did it fill with one or two applications on oak? What exactly didn't you
"get"? Did it shrink a lot? Did you apply, scrape with a plastic
card, wipe, then lightly sand?

I've used the enduro, once. I don't think I quite get it yet. I'll
give it another try or two before I give up.

it was on walnut, not oak.

I had problems getting it into the pores. it would *seem* to be
covering well, but once sanded the pores were still unfilled. I also
had problems with the tool marks from the plastic card being visible
after it dries. I guess it's a "one stroke" kinda product- no going
back at all.
