will bondo hold up to the heat? a kid in my area gave me a free bseries valve cover but he shaved off the honda logo and "honda motoring co" off using a grinder without sandpaper (just bare wheel ) so it looks all chopped up. i tried sanding it out but no luck. i searched and someone said use quick steel. is it sandable??

I used JB weld on mine and it held up fine.
Not sure about bondo though.

 

yea use jb weld dont use bondo it'll eventually crack

 

use metal to metal its like bondo but made for high heat

 

metal to metal is not made for high heat.. if you want you can bring it to a welding shop and have them weld a bead in it, then grind it and block it out smooth....or you can use something like quicksteel or jb weld and paint over it...

I use bondo...and its been quite a long time.
no cracks...holds up fine.

 

I evercoated a valve cover once, it lasted a good year, then it came off, almost pealed off. Oh and it was evercoat gold.

 

I have bondo on mine, it has held up fine for the last 5 months that it has been on.
