What do you guys use for good body filler?
I just used some new (to me, anyway) stuff. I think it is made by Bond-o, but it is lightweight gold filler. Went on very smooth, good for thin coats. I couldn't believe how light it was, felt like 1/2 the weight of the old gray stuff I always used. A friend of mine (who is a body man) suggested putting a few drops of fiberglass resin in the stuff and mix it up with the hardner. I didn't get to try it, but I will on the next project. Anybody ever done that? How'd it work?
You get what you pay for using "Bondo". That crap will shrink and show! Your best option is the Evercoat Metal/Final glaze. It will blend with the featheredge with no issues. Its in a white squeeze bottle with green label. I would have to go out to the shop and get the number. All auto paint supply stores carry it. Its around $26 a bottle but I have never had a recheck from it in 10 years of using it in the production side. This coming from a Master CRRT Tech. Should not fill more than 3/32nds. Take the time to pull dents. Well worth the time and effort. I am not much on a stud gun, I prefer my Eagle II machine.
I've been using Evercoat Rage Gold for years, and it's been a great product, but I have recently switched to 3M. I know what you guys are saying, 3M has never had a good filler, but I tell you what fella's This filler is the ****!
