Anyone used the aforementioned stuff???

Its a tall 500mm blue/silver can.....and is a HIGH BUILD primer and costs about £10!

Will this be suitable for filling small pin holes in filler that i have just sanded?

I am thinking this could save me alot of hassle if it does?

cheers!

Worth £10?? Does it get rid of all the pin holes? Is it like spraying on another thin layer of filler?

they use 'special' filler, wat r u using.

bodyshops use top stop gold etc.. which is wat i use aswell now, has much less air bubbles in it and is more runny, thus easier to put on.

To get rid of the pin holes etc you really need to use some stopper, same as filler but a lot finer. If you aint got any just press down really hard with another skim of filler so you can still see the old filer but the pin holes are filled. When you rub it down use a 230/320 discs and rub very softly otherwise you'll rub out the shape you had before.

yes this is poo filler i reccomed a filler caller evercoat z grip, quality stuff no pin holes what so ever.
