bondo
i was thinking about taking off my trim and bondoing the indent before my car gets painted, how reliable is bondo? if someone slams a door into my door is it going to crack? does anyone know a good bondo brand?
thanks
thanks

Bondo is for small dents/holes and uneven surfaces. You don't use it for big stuff like filling in the moulding channel . . .

Then once you get the everything grinded down...use bondo to even out everything.

1.Take them off.
2.Get a small piece of metal about 3/4"x3/4" and glue a coathanger to the middle of it.
3.Then put the metal in the hole so you can't see the edges, whilst holding it up with the hanger.
4.The do 2 small tack welds to hold the metal in place, take off the hanger(should snap off) then repeat on all the holes.
5.Come back to the first one and weld along the edges to the metal is secure.
6. Get a dremel or another sand device and sand down the welds.
7. With a mix of bondo/bodyfiller paste an amount over the holes (each hole not along the whole door)
8. After drying sand down to a smooth finish.
9. Whilst sanding don't forget to slightly extend past the filler to the contours are even.
10.Prep with primer and sealer and you are set.
