We used the Bondo stuff on my Friends Avalanche it really works good on a small area and looks great, BUT when you do a large area you get what looks like paint streaks. So after testing on a small area You would of tried a large one (If that makes you feel any better). We used Purple power to get it off it was a pain in the arse>>>>>> but after several experiments he claims to have it down on how to apply. #1 wear gloves this stuff sticks, stains, whatever. He said to use a wax pad not the silly APPLICATOR( AKA) Little sponge. and follow the directions on the bottle put the wax pad in a plastic bag and seal after using. His Truck looks Great and it was really Faded! I have not tried this stuff except for that one time with him, so I am going of his words But I will vouch for the look of his cladding it really looks good
