Anyone have a video of how to do this. I get the mixing part and all of that but all the videos I find are for cars, I need to apply it to a specific location on the playfield (size of a quarter) and dont want to make a mess like put it all over where it doesnt need to go.
wait, wait, wait
No.
Go to Home Depot and get some KwikWood instead.
Bondo is too soft.
no idea what exactly ya want to do but if you're trying to fill something use the KwikWood.
I used wood filler on The Shadow. Sanded nice, got it good and flat and then I put the decal on it (sanctum wear) Worked like a charm
So bondo or quickwood? I've got people saying bondo, some people saying quickwood? I'm filling holes created by the slam ramp on NGG. The holes are about 1/16 of an inch deep some places maybe even a bit more.
Bondo man, I have used it so many times on everything, it sands, paints, it is hard, it will do whatever. It is made to take clear coat and any type of paint. Follow the mixing instructions use the plastic scraper to smear it in and "fill" the hole, then you quickly clean the bondo from your scraper, and scrape it flat over your fill clearing off all the excess and leaving the hole you filled flush, then quickly wipe any haze around that with alchohol on a rag. Also check you tube searching "bondo on wood" and watch a few videos keeping in mind the technique I told you. Here is a great vid.
Bondo if you already have it will work fine, unless your filling an area where a ball is going to drop on it all the time then it will be fine plus your going to clearcoat it anyway. You can get small Bondo spreaders at an auto parts store and cut it even smaller if you want.
