P38 Easy Sanding Body Filler 250ml Tin

Months ago, my wife hit a curb and lost a hubcap on our car. £40 each to replace! Even scuffed up second-hand ones go for £30+ on eBay. I couldn't stand looking at my car like that though as the alloys underneath are in a terrible condition, so I bought this smashed up one off eBay for a tenner. Then I bought this resin body filler and got to work once it arrived. I've never used resin body filler before, so I was really glad that the instructions were very clear, illustrated and written in plain English. I was able to get going straight away used a piece of leftover cardboard to mix up the filler on. As the instructions noted, I started off with just a small bit to get used to using it and also understand how long it takes to dry. It dries very quickly! Definitely inside three minutes, so be prepared to apply it. I roughly sanded the plastic surface of this hubcap with 80 grit sandpaper and it adhered to it very well. As you can see, I also rebuilt sections of the hubcap using sellotape to put the filler on, applying a lot of it (unsurprisingly it didn't adhere to the slick sellotape and moved around a lot) and then sanding it down, again with 80 grit, then moving to 120 grit once the majority of it had been removed. I then primed the surface and sprayed it, with the paint adhering nicely to the filler. The final result is very strong, much stronger than I though, at least and I'm really pleased with the result. This is excellent stuff, great value for money and ideal to have around as you can see it has a number of applications.

I have just used this in a wooden window frame, easy to mix, easy to apply.....set hard and has sanded down very smoothy, probably not meant for this purpose but needs must.

Item delivered on time it completed the job everything good

Excellent filler this I’ve used it on a few things and always been happy with the end result will keep on using this all the time.

Used on car, qick set and easily sanded. Also used as a wood filler, although it may not expand and contract as well as actual wood filler. So far, perfect.

Quick service. 5* seller. Good price. Thanks, but, I remember when a tin this size was at least half full, not a third full.

It can be a bit tricky to use, and you definitely have to use it in a well ventilated environment but aside from that is great. Safe to use on plastics (it is as I understand a plastic itself) and is great for smoothing out large areas and filling seams. Sands wonderfully and is a perfect replacement for those who can't get a hold of the more american "Bondo". It sets within minutes (see: tricky to use) but once its cured is rock hard and can be sanded down to an ultra smooth finish. Currently using it for a Star Wars project turning a Hasbro Clone Trooper helmet into a more screen accurate prop.

It does what is says in the tin. TBH, I used it to fill a hole in my wall and re drill. Worked perfectly
