why do people hate bondo there is nothing wrong with it if used the rite way

i know there is other body fillers i see small differences but its all the same

@TheGypsyhustler

bondo is fine , for the applications it is designed for. since it is pourous, not recommended on water craft!

gee how stupid and dangerous, bondo has no strength at all even a 4 year old knows that, luckely there are people who know how to properly repair it.

[seasprayauto]

thank you!

@happymark1805 didn't disagree my point was body filler (i don't use bondo i buy from body shop supply stores) is very strong. As you pointed out no flex (and won't really stick to plastic incidentally) but lots of strength. There are marine grade fillers tho i don't know how good they are.

@tazdevilman1 - yes on a car lead is the way to go for a high quality repair, they still do that on expensive cars like rolls royce, but you can use bondo on a car if the body is metal and if it is welded or dented out, the boat flexes too much and gives no strenght, the people who did it probebly thought that is was an easy fix and sell it.

@happymark1805 everything has its purpose. Bondo is a brand. Body filler is a very useful tool. The most expensive body shops skin a car with body filler in order to get the body lines just right. This is an accepted practice and if you want your car nice after an accident and its not a front clip issue that gets replaced scrap the car if body filler is an absolute no or get an old lead filler expert (good luck nowadays) and pay a mint. Don't get me wrong i think leading is a lost art tho.

@TheGypsyhustler I believe its mostley classic cars or cars that will be around over 40 years,I'm pretty sure after time it will break down and deteriorate,Kinda like if you had a styrophone cup for 40 years after time it will just disinigrate.

Especially bad when used in the water bondo is hydro-phillic. Never use it on boat hulls or anything that is going to be submerged in water especially salt water. Even on cars it must be sealed on both sides to prevent further damage. I actually love bondo but only for cars and motorcycles.
