Not for any application but auto… I guess
Would Not RecommendWhat a mess! Followed instructions to the T, before I was able to mix hardner in it turned to a bunch of clumps!

product is fine but they are deceiving consumers w
Would Not RecommendThe new can is the same size as the old can but only 3/4 full. Old can is 861 grams, new can is 793 grams. The hardener shrunk even more, going from 1 oz to 3/4 oz., leaving consumers with the incorrect ratio. The quantity is written on the new can in a low contrast font that is very hard to read. I'd rather pay more and get what I am expecting than buy the product and unknowingly get less.
Not enough
Bought 2 diffrent size cans both only half full. The original body filler didn't come with instructions. The quick set body filler becomes unworkable after 2 minutes. Set up time isn't much diffrent between the 2 products but they cost the same so not really a big deal. Just disappointing the product is misleading. You buy a quart you expect a quart of product. Had to buy an additional can to finish small project

Can only filled halfway with product
Would Not RecommendIt's a shame that 3M/Bondo would take advantage of their customers by only filling their products halfway. I will factor this into my future purchase decisions when needing a product offered by 3M or its competitors.

“Mixing Instructions”
Why can’t 3M put mixing instructions on the can. Purchased the 1 quart can, NO instruction sheet, NO instructions on the can. Give us a break, a little less health warnings and just one line of mixing instructions.

Fill it to the rim next time!
Would Not RecommendYou don't say how tall the 3 inch puddle is. You also don't fill the quart container to the top. Which is fraud in my book. Imagine if you bought a can of paint, jug of milk, gallon of gas, can of soda, quart of oil - and none of them were full? You'd be scratching your head. Also, not having the simple directions on the can is a joke. What has happened ed to this company?

Understanding Instructions Telepathically
Would RecommendI’ve was unsuccessful in my attempt to read the mind of the person that wrote the instructions. How deep/tall/thick shall the 3” diameter “puddle” be! Should I imagine I’m flinging a spoonful of whipped cream on my stack of blueberry waffles? When squeezing a 3” “strip” of hardener, how thick/thin should that be? When I was young, I was scolded for using too much toothpaste on my toothbrush. I tried to use less, but I kind of liked the taste of Aqua Fresh for kids! Now I’m afraid I’m ...

I don’t know what to do with my hands
Would Not RecommendInstructions leave a lot to the imagination. There is no ratio given. It’s just guess work.

Hardener is some weird experiment that .
Bought a half gal of Bondo a few months ago. Used some and put the rest on the shelf. Went to use it again and the hardener tube just crumbled apart. Inside the hardener had formed these long spiney white crystals about a half inch all over the hardener. I have tried to contact 3M and anyone else that could help me. No one and I mean NO ONE wants to even hear my problem.

My “go to” hole repair.
Would RecommendThis has become a staple with many furniture artists using Bondo to fill holes or uneven surfaces due to missing veneer. I have used on dozens of repairs on furniture and even throughout my property on a variety of problems…pvc fence hole, deck boards and a showcase. While a bit too goopy for vertical applications, I made it work on a door frame that is still like new after five years. Once you get the hang of how much hardener we to use for adequate work time and solid hardness, it’s a breez...
