Body Filler Question

• Page 1 of 1
It has been a while, but I am going to continue with a project. I need to purchase some body filler but I don't need a gallon. I used to use the 3m marson platinum but where I am looking it only comes in a gallon. I noticed that 3m lightweight filler comes in a quart size and is significantly cheaper. Could someone let me know what the difference is between the 2? Or if you have any recommendations that come in a quart.

I like and use Evercoat Lite weight $11 bucks a quart, I usually buy it at my local Jobber by the Gallon for $15 a Gallon if I want to use it as a Pin hole filler or make it super thin I just add a bit of Evercoat's Plastic Honey, a little goes a long way! works with Most all of Evercoats fillers really Good stuff.

Sanding is Sanding its always a Pain in the rear! Go around to your local body shops see what they are using? I bet its just the cheapest stuff they can get locally except for on Plastic Bumpers. Flex able bumpers require special fillers, Polyvance makes some of the Best Flex filler available but its not cheap by any means they are very proud of it. https://www.polyvance.com/Flex-Filler-1/2000-1/ Dennis B.

Thank you very much. I picked up a gallon anyways. I'm sure I'll use it over the next year or so. That price is very good.
