      bondo?

      I am wanting to know what the best bondo or filler is to fill small dents or holes. Any pics you may have or skills in using the products will help.
      Thanks in advance.

      how small are these dents you speak of? If they are less than 1/8" (which they should be since you need to work the metal as smooth as possible) I would use a product called metal glaze. Its a greenish blue 2 part glazing putty NOT TO BE CONFUSED with one part spot putty in the tube. Under no circumstances should you fill holes with any sort of body filler, weld them shut then fill them. If you dont moisture will get in from behind and your repair will rust/crack.
      The other benefit of metal glaze or 2 part glazing putty is that you can apply it over paint primer or body filler as long as you rough it up a little. Hope this helps you, see my suburban link in my sig for all kinds of bodywork pictures.

      rage gold and always weld up holes. metal glaze is good for small dents it is much easyer to sand. always start with the 36-80 when using rage but with metal glaze useally 180-220 will be good. the coarser the grit the faster the cut. much easer to get straight with a coaser grit.

      body work is an art. the shows on tv make it look easy but is very hard labor intensive work. great body work makes a great painter.

      bad body work can make a great painters work look bad.
