http://www.abatron.comUse this stuff for the outdoors. Not cheap bot worth every penny.

The forest service uses it for repairs. I used it on some rotten windows on a Greene and Greene Restoration about 10 years ago and it has held up perfectly. It was also used in my parents's house 15 years ago for some structural repair (didn't feel like tearing out and patching) and it has not moved one bit. Not cracks on the wall, nothing. Issue with Bondo and lumber when wet is that the expansion. For interior use, Bondo is the greatest thing sine slice bread. We can rebuild old molding so they match perfectly during remodeling stage. Right before it dries, it can shaped and it will always stay put. Love bondo.
