best thing for a large crease on a car door where my son hit a guard rail and creased the door skin all the way across 1/4 inch deep or less?

What would you use to repair cracks and holes in the headliner board. I need smth what won't fell off later due to heat. Thank you for the informative film.

Just FYI, if you have a huge gaping hole like shown in the bonda glass example, body filler will not repair that. Body filler is meant to be applied at max 1/8th thickness

The tailgate on my 2007 4Runnner is starting to rust towards the bottom. It's got maybe a 0.5 inch separation of panel seems on the bottom edge in one particular spot (about about 6-8" long).

My intention is to use some kind of filler there, roughly sand it, apply POR15 over it, then rustoleum paint over that to stop the bleeding (rusting) as much as I can.

I was originally thinking the short strand fiberglass would be best since there is a bit of panel separation, but wondering if I should just use the standard filler or the gold?

I have Step 2 and 3, I don't know if it's that same as short fiber(2) and gold filler(3) tho?

I need to fill a crack in a fiberglass shower in an RV around the drainage area. Would I use the Bondo filler, hair or the glass?

Can Bondo be molded to repair a wheel on an expensive suitcase that was damaged ?

[harinderpalsingh]

Thank you for providing this information...I really appreciate it...

I made a mistake, purchased and used " fiberglass hardener" how much of a problem did I create for myself? It did seem to get hard but not as hard and as quickly as the cream hardener.

What type of "Bondo" will i need to prep a bonnet ready for paint?
I got a fiberglass bonnet scoop mounted to my bonnet but you can see the outline on where the scoop is sitting on the bonnet.. I want it to look so that the scoop is moulded to the bonnet in one piece.. Not see the lines from the scoop

Strange situation here:
Im trying to make a rigid tube out of bondo coating a sonotube/form tube(google for reference)

I plan to use the fiber sheets and bondo resin.. Will i be able to sand it down to a good even shape when i finish?
Should I use the fiber sheets and bondo resin, let it cure. Then cover in the body filler bondo so that I can sand it down?

Thanks, and wish you could update it, too. I appreciate hearing about how the different types are used. I have High Bond and I am not sure how its different. Also, can you use different color Bondo activator creams or must you use the same color cream in one job?

[RobLower-bd]

I used metal bondo on plastic bumper by mistake lol shlould I be okey ?

[Elonmuskfanpage]

I bought a small bondo body filler
It has a cover on it
I think I already put the hardner and mixed because I can’t find it
Or it just came like this body filler will this get hard? And seal a small hole on fiberglass?

[robin]

Does the fiber glass jelly stick to plastic?
