In this video I show you the proper way to prepare the surface, mix and apply auto body filler (Bondo) to wood. This is the same process I used for over twenty years in my family's body shop. My job back in the early 50's was cleaning the shop after school and I remember clearly the day our jobber introduced us to our first gallon of plastic. The older guys in the shop didn't want to be the Ginny pigs so they made me try it first. Bear in mind that we were still using a pick and file plus lead as the filler. For those of you old enough to remember, to a golf ball size glob of plastic, you would add about five or six drops of hardener (benzoyl peroxide).

Finally somebody who does a great explanation plus some cool tricks. I’ve worked with residence for years but never use Bondo. Getting the mix ratio is right is where I was concerned and you gave me a good point to work with. Thanks again for some decent explanations.

Thanks Ron. My dad is a retired body and fender man, who brought all his tools home. Having access to the various graters, files, putty knives, etc., I just needed some bondo (picked up a gallon at Home Depot), and some basic techniques, which your clip fully covers. I appreciate it.

A little time saving trick I learned in a cabinet shop is to wait until the bondo is almost set up so it's not sticky but still a bit pliable and you can cut any excess smoothly off the top of the repair with a putty knife.

Thanks for your video. I can add that acetone works great for final cleaning of the tools. Also when mixing little amounts of the putty like few grams (and I do it quite often), an electronic scale with 0,01g resolution is a great help in dosing the right amount of the hardener.

What is the ratio amounts for these two products ? I’m doing wood filler on a table and I only want a small amount but can’t seem to find any real number amounts for this mix . Thanks . I hope you can understand my question! 💁🏼‍♀️

@WilliamRWarrenJr 11 лет назад
Thank you loads! I'm not trying for a smooth finish, but your blending technique is the best I've found. Good advice! (I understand acetone will attack dried leavings, and someone said mineral oil -- read 'baby oil' -- will also clean tools and mixing surfaces, though I haven't tried it yet. I know it cleans brushes better than turpentine and is less toxic ...)

You said that it doesn't harden in the can but I have some filler thats several years old and has never been used but it's the thickness of clay or silly putty. Its not runny at all, but completely moldable. Is that going to matter if I use it?
@mikex1384
@mikex1384 5 лет назад
I wish someone would explain the ratio of hardener to filler in more exact terms. He says the ratio is critical but then just eyeballs how much hardener he adds. This is not very helpful to a new and/or infrequent user. I may use Bondo a couple of times in my lifetime and I don't want it hardening before I'm done with my project, or taking a week to harden because I added too much. How about something like "X ounces/grams of hardener to Y ounces/grams of filler gives you 15 minutes before it hardens".

Can you put filler over dtm high build?So many debates over this. Just got off the phone with Tamco they said no filler on bare metal creates heat then condensation on metal and to put over there DTM high build 5310. I do not need epoxy if car is inside all the time it will save you a lot of money just block and top coat your done and still have epoxy properties in the DTM.

@RonBudman
@RonBudman 11 лет назад
It doesn't get rock hard, like fiberglass resin. You can nail through it, as long as you are nailing all the way through to the substrate. Body fill alone will not have much holding power. I was taught that filler should not be applied more than a 1/4 inch thick. I don't think I remember ever nailing through it: however, I think it would behave somewhat like MDF . . . Drill first. For more information Wiki Bondo.

Ron Budman, thank you for this very helpful information. I am in the process of refinishing a cast iron jockey made in Canton, Ohio by the Champion Fence Co. ? years ago. I have filled in several spots with BONDO tho I had an earlier problem with my mixture drying out sooner than I could work with it. I learned to mix smaller quantities and that helped. Is there any chance of thinning a mixture? The BONDO residue is chalky when sanded, suppose that's normal. I think it is ready to prime, using MOBILE Primer and Farm Implement Paint. Having learned a LOT, and having a wonderful time. Wish you were here! Elizabeth (age 80) .

@RonBudman
@RonBudman 4 года назад
I was taught many years ago to add about one inch of hardener to a golf ball size amount of Bondo. However, it is always best to go with a little less than too much.

@KowboyUSA
@KowboyUSA 8 лет назад
+Adam Baber If you apply the Bondo too thick it will either end up cracking or even just falling off. If you can pound the dent out enough that only a very thin coat of Bondo is required, yeah, it can save you having to replace the panel.
