Rated 5 out of 5 by from great product! hardens like armor when used right! First off, I am NOT a professional body tech. I grew up in the poor folks sector that scrounged and used anything and everything cheap. that said, I've had experience with a whole bunch of different body materials. more than I'd like in some cases. first thing I did was test a small blob of it with both cream and liquid hardener and it works great with both. (I prefer the cream because the color changes as it mixes). It goes on smooth and pretty much bubble-less (IF you've done your prep correctly) . I do suggest you do your buildups in stages and try not to slop as, once its hard? its not an easy sand without a Disc sander. I even smacked it with a hammer to see if I could fracture it and... nothing! so, for all the negative remarks? learn to test your product if you've never used it... this stuff rocks!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from works as stated. it does require patience. I have used this product on and off over a couple years. It works great. It has been used in areas that I know has some chance of flexing.. I am restoring a 60 Triumph TR 3 and the inner fender wells on the front and back will flex. I used it over welds where new sheet metal was welded in. No issues. It took me a few tries to get the amount of hardener just right. It does take a few hours to set up. Even then it has a tacky feeling. I found that if I take a small knife blade and gently scrape the surface, it will remove the portion of the resin that comes to the surface. Then I took some used 60 grit sand paper to to scuff off the surface before taking a new piece of 60 grit sand paper to It. I am very happy with the product. It does stay flexible and moves with the metal so you do not get stress cracks. Do not expect to sand it down until several hours has gone by. BE SURE to stir up the contents of the can to mix it thoroughly, as the liquid will separate from the solid paste material after sitting, even for amshort period of time.. I personally would recommend this product.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good product bad can The product is fine but the container is terrible. The nylon ring to keep the lid on during shipping is difficult to get off and the can is so thin you can collapse it if you aren't careful.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product ! I bought 2 quarts came in quickly, "BUT" the package came in a little damage on the box. Opened the box Surprised to see a box full of the product. It had poured out all in the box ! The 2 quarts did not have the metal retainers on them holding the lids to the can. Whom ever packaged the product must have it in the box from across the warehouse. I called Eastwood they gave me a refund no questions asked. Now I still need 2 more quarts for body seams on the 2 quarters & more areas on a 55 Chevy. Afraid to order it it may come in again a box full aluminum filler.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy to work with Mixes well, sets up nicely, have not notices any air bubbles, seems to work on several types of substrate. For work I am doing I needed something to go direct to metal. I am also having to fill in some spots on structural wood pillars. So far this product is performing well for my applications.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Hardener doesn't work I used the clear hardener and it took three days to set up. Extra hardener, same result. I had some red hardener left over and tried it on a small batch and it works great. Try it using the red hardener.

Questions & Answers

Can phosphoric acid be applied over this filler?

Asked by: odeewankenobi
NO, No. The phosphoric acid in most self-etch primers that are used for automotive refinishing inhibits the cure of the filler and creates an adhesion problem. If a corrosion protection coating is preferred we recommend to use an epoxy primer and follow the coating manufacturer's recommendations.

Is this product suitable for marine applications?

Asked by: Little nail
We have used it on Aluminum Transmission Cases. I believe it would work as long as you topcoat it with a waterproof topcoat.

Can this be used to fill low spots like regular body filler.

Asked by: Fireman42
This product can be used to fill low spots like regular body filler and it performs very well in this application. The aluminum powder that is used in the filler provides additional strength and corrosion protection over a standard body filler, but does make the filler harder to sand, and harder to achieve a perfectly flat surface. we typically recommend using this filler in an application where the low spot is deeper then normal, or to smooth cast metal parts.
