Re: Custom Fiberglass doors
Do it yourself and save $$.... resin, cat-hair fiberglass.. sand down.. body filler.. sand down and then re-paint.

Re: Custom Fiberglass doors
Bondo is a brand name of body filler.. its a sad thing now that people refer to bondo as actually filling in the low areas, whereas is only a brand name... tisk tisk...
