Bondo wood filler, applied, sanded and painted, is usually what my

Hear that Karl? Apparently you're a clown...


Nah, it's Mr. Non-Cents that's the clown.

His video response is an apples-to-crocodiles comparison.

Be MUCH better to prime the bare wood and sand the solid paint down

filler is not designed for use on wood.
