Doesn't Bondo look worst than a couple of dents?Why do some people put Bondo on their cars if they never actually paint them?
Where I live they salt the roads a lot in winter! So there are a lot of older cars out there with rusted areas on them. To pass the state inspection people put Bondo over any holes just to get the older car to pass. Most of the time they just cover the Bondo with Spray can primer. Because the car is old they don't want to spend the money on a new paint job. Bondo is cheap and will get the car or truck through inspection. That's the reason for doing it that way around here!
Hope that helps!Why do some people put Bondo on their cars if they never actually paint them?
they put the bondo on, with dreams of painting the car, but soon realize it's a larger project than they originally thought or simply ran out of money.
Oh, for God's sake. I just realized I'm one of those people!
Well, the way it started out, I prepped the surface metal, and that took all day, and then I put on the damn Bondo, and it took an hour to cure, and then it was dark and cold, and the next day, I couldn't finish the job because of some reason or other, and then pure laziness took over, and I didn't finish the thing off until like a month later.
I guess some people have the same problem as me, and then there are just people who are ';white trash';, who are f***in' lazy or just don't care.
As for ';runnin' out of money,'; well, the damn can of Bondo is about $10 bucks, and the paint and sandpaper and other crap isn't more than $50.
But, yeah, I agree: the look is hellaciously worse than just leaving the dents alone.
there probably just filling the holes in the body so the car can pass a inspection.
Dave got it right
