has any one use metal 2 metal body filler?

 

I have used a lot of fillers but that's a new one to me , so no.

 

I have used it as a "1'st fill" over weld repairs because its waterproof. It uses the clear liquid hardener and is a bit hard to get mixed right. It is very hard to sand. When I use it over welds, I usually sand it gown with a DA then use regular filler like Rage to smooth things out.

 

It's stupid.

It's plastic with what looks like aluminum shavings in it.

comes right off just like any other filler.

I like actual lead or body solder that you melt on.

Hard to sand and makes humps so there's no point.

 

A poor mans hard filler is fiberglass reinforced plastic filler with a light coat of Bondo gold filler skimmed on the top of it. After properly Prepping the metal surface and using acid etch, add the reinforced plastic, sand it close to what you want the finished panel to look like and add a skim coat of Bondo gold or a light filler like it. Then use your spot putty as needed to fill the sanding marks and imperfections.. It will NOT, I repeat NOT fall off or out! Of course, if you place the material over rust or moisture, leave primer over the repair for months while exposed to the elements, etc, all bets are off.

Lead work is awesome! Very few people/shops do it or even know how. Why? Most consumers will not pay for a craftsman to use lead for a repair when a collision shop will use plastic for 1/10 of the cost. No one will pay for lead work on a 2009 Nissan Murano for example. That's just the way it is.

Crap, to the OP, No, I never used it,..LOL The method I described above lasts for YEARS though.
