3M Bondo Professional Gold Filler, 00233, 1 Quart

I have worked with other bondo products in the past, for cars, but this time I had some holes in the basement floor to patch. the holes were those small divots you get when you take out a wall, and its in a utility room so I want to be able to paint the floor. I applied this and it did take two layers on the deeper holes but really worked well. we then used some to coat a prop my son is making for a convention, and it really worked well for that too. maybe someday I will try it on a car :) its easy to mix, set up time is fast enough with out being too fast to work on unusual stuff. just mix up small amounts at a time. if you have not worked with a bondo before, start with a small amount and add to it as it dries or you move to other areas. once you get used to it you can work larger. it sands easy if you work at it right when it dries, its harder to sand if you wait a few days and get back to it. this was cheaper than the floor repair kits and I hear it takes paint well, and the floor repair stuff does not. we will see when I paint it.

I purchased this product to fix a rust-hole that was on my car. It worked very well in fixing the problem. This product is relatively fast drying, which can be a positive or a negative. It is easy to sand and to form especially if you use it in small layers. Do not use thick layers because it will try to run and make a mess. The lid was nice because you can mix the bondo in it. After winter, I still works well, and I think that it will be permanent, especially with the use of the bondo patch (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/review/R2XCRHHQVPHD4U?ref_=glimp_1rv_cl). 5 stars for this product. If I have been helpful or informative in your purchasing decision, please give me a like on my review. I paid the full amount for this product and was not refunded in any way for making this review.

This helped to make my wheel well on my car like new.Most of it had rusted off along the edge. I used this in combination 3M mesh patches. The only thing is you have to work quickly as it hardens fast. It can be a little difficult to spread for a first time user. There was a lot of sanding. Preparation is also key though. You need to make sure you really remove any rust off a car first. I also used rust reformer and a professional grade rust remover and sealed it with an automotive paint and clear coat.

This product is the best in class. Recently I had the misfortune to repair one of my sculptures that was damaged in transit. I tried many of the usual methods available to fix the cracks and all of them left hairline cracks after they hardened. Then it came to me like a revelation from heaven above. Auto repair folks use Bondo to repair dents and holes in cars. The repairs were so good that it was nearly impossible to see the repair. Given this bit of experience I tried Bondo on my sculpture and to my excitement the cracks were gone. The only issue for me is the short time one has to work with this product. It hardens quickly and as a result one must work fast!

Got what I expected...a nice new can of Bondo, which came with activation paste. This professional gold product seems smooth to me. Is it just good marketing? Perhaps... however, after several applications I prefer professional gold to regular Bondo. Easy mixing and application, product not stale at all. Arrived on time, reasonable price. Will buy again, next time I run out.

This stuff is great! This has been my first experience with any fiberglass or body filler products. I'm building a subwoofer enclosure for 2-1262 watt Infinity speakers powered by a 4000 watt Monoblock amplifier. I started with a couple of coats of 3M Bondo Fiberglass resin over a thin felt covering. Then I applied a couple of coats of Bondo Glass Short Strand. I spoke with Tommy Boyd at 3M regarding finishing products and he recommended Bondo Gold. I am very impressed with this product. It is easy to mix, easy to apply, and easy to sand. I have been using my drywall broad knife and a 12" knife to apply the product. I have also found that if I have any "ridges" or knife blade edges sticking up, I just take a 1" putty knife and gently scrape it to make sanding easier. I will definitely be using the heck out of this product in the future. The picture is one of my subs, custom built, by me.

Better than typical Bondo and not bad on price given that. Goldish instead of pink.

I couldn’t use because it was all dried up. I tried mixing the can up with a screw driver but it was like hard clay. I broke a plastic scraper trying to get some out of the can. Wasted money trying to buy the good stuff… Picture of what it should look like on the right, can of Bondo I’ve had in my cabinet for over 6 months. This product is pictured on the left.

Works like it should, just remember to shake and knead the small bottle of hardener first. Mine separated in the bottle and splattered all over.

Good stuff
