Yea, it's a "fine" version of bondo. Smoother and results in a tighter finishe with less voids and pinholes.

If I am correct, if there is only one kind of "fine version of bondo", I wouldn't use it. Doby works is a lot of work. I would usefiberglass bondo. Very tough, very much harder to sand, but very durable.

I remember working with my friend 25+ years ago and he used Bondo, the pink hard as nails when it dries stuff. I was hoping that this green body filler was more "user friendly" for a rookie like me.
I would at least try to use the green body filler and see how easy\hard it is to use. stormmaster, will "poly resin blend" be on the can. I read all the cans at Autozone had and they said Professional, Gold, Premimum???

go to a body shop supplier and buy rage gold. It works great and what most professionals use. Very little pin holes. Then use a buildable sandable primer. I use URO from dupont works awesome and blends great

I would second the Rage gold recomendation, however, I think it only comes in gallons. Still, it is very nice stuff.

The glass fillers work best on fiberglass repairs etc, where you need some add'l strength.
