Something like this is a good place to start :-

I have so many different types of filler knives. It's useful to have something wider than the channel you're filling. You can knock up the filler in an old tub, make sure you follow the instructions and measure the amount of filler to water, then mix it until it's not lumpy. You can use warm water to make it dry quicker. Once it's dried for a few hours you can use a sponge to clean up any excess or texture the surface a bit.

Right, I've done the easy bit here and am now on the making it actually smooth bit.
Anyone any tips on the best way to get the filler smooth and level? What tools should I be looking at using? Cheers
