- The Motley Guy here bringing you an exciting first-time automotive body repair job on my truck. I'm in the middle of painting an old army humvee, and go find my videos on that coming soon. Meanwhile, I had to patch a few corners on the front fiberglass hood, so follow along on using Bondo's body filler.

Great advice. Thanks! Will use it in my old truck.
Right on!
Thank you!!! About to use Bondo for the 1st time, and intend to do everything you just demonstrated here - so your video is the nearly-perfect answer to all my questions! 😊😊😊
The more hardner you use the less time you have to work with it.
You put to much hardener
You’re doing it. But yeah, too much hardener and light coats. Build it up too much and it will separate easier from the repair. And I didn’t see if you were but always wear a good respirator and eye protection. Especially if it’s fiberglass.
Thanks for the tip. I’d never heard of it, but I’ll give it a shot. In the meantime, the bondo on fiberglass seems to be holding up extremely well
Awesome JOB !
A fun video to watch... enjoy watching experienced craftsman demonstrating their skills. Thanks!
I don’t much but wouldn’t bond fiberglass filler be best on that front end . Great video though
I had no expectations really but it was easy stuff to work with. 😮 let me know if something else on the market would work better!
now it want to become a dentist, prob. where they all come from.
