Evercoat Tiger hair!!!

[henryj10]

Whats your opinion of the stuff... Body work with Tiger Long Strand Fiberglass Body filler. will it last longer than bondo. I know its a Bit$# to sand through exp.(a large supply of 32 grit is needed.) How will it hold up on body panels? I know its used for welds seems but it says high build on the can.lol

If your about to spew off an 3 paragraph lecture on true body work"
Please save us all the lectures on bondo we all know it cracks lol.... and we all know those who outwardly boast about all metal repair really worked for earl scheib half their career and contributed to enough mud slinging to fill up a foot ball stadium.
Thanks

I have used Dyna-Lite Brand Dyna Hair which is similar, Evercoat is a better brand and should be a better product. I have used their Metal Glaze putty with outstanding results, so I would take it this would work just as well. As with any BW job, remove the paint or primer out further than you intend to use the filler to ensure the filler has full metal contact with nothing to help it release. The glaze is for final finish layers, but this seems to be a starting filler and you can go thicker with it.
Enough said on the how to - see one paragraph - so to speak LOL

Good Luck

It does its job. The main thing you should be concerned with to keep mud from cracking is make sure the metal is "room" temperature. If the metal is cold, your mud will crack when warm weather rolls around. The thing with fiberglass fillers is they are waterproof, where regular fillers aren't, thats why they're good for weld seams and coughrustholescough.
