Rated 5 out of 5 by Kovi 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 Bobs 84 Nissan 300zx 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 Busy Deacon 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 78to70Camaro 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.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kozlow from Worked Great I used this to fill quarter panel seams on a 1973 Dodge Challenger and it worked great. I would buy again. I used recommended amount of harder and I didn't have any problems with it hardening. Would like to see the harder be a color instead of being clear, its easier to know when its properly mixed together.

Rated 4 out of 5 by BrokeBloke from Double the Hardener - at least!! I bought a Quart of this stuff, mixed per instructions and it never hardened. I then mixed up a batch with double the hardener and it worked great. I would recommend 5% hardener for a quick setup. This material goes on smoothly and is self leveling to a degree. Sands easily and will feather.

Questions & Answers

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

Asked by: Fire42

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.

The Eastwood Contour Aluminum Reinforced Repair compound(13518ZP) is formulated as a superior automotive body repair compound with aluminum added for strength. Unfortunately we have no performance data on this product as an aluminum boat repair material.

I received this 2 months ago along with contour body filler. I only received the hardener for the contour body filler. Can I used the same hardener for the aluminum filler or do I need to get a specific hardener and if so how do I go about getting it?

Asked by: Brettj

This filler will require our liquid hardener which is different than that shipped with the body filler. We're very sorry this wasn't shipped with the original order. Shoot an email to our Customer service department at Help@Eastwood.com or give them a call at 1800 343 9353 to have us get you a new tube of hardener.
