How is it for filling area's, say you had a sheeted wing and it had a small low section that with glass you would spend a week filling and sanding 5 billions times.
Or had a few dings not through but fairly deep.
Did anyone do the join test yet?

Guess the simple question is how important is surface prep. pre-coating.

Who's going to be the first to shower it with gas or nitro? See what effect it has to the finish. flammability ounce cured (does it burn black and dealy, burn quickly?). Crashes happen and so do flames at times.
Check out post #89 and work down.

As for filling you will still need to do the body work. I would say you would want to do that before putting this stuff on. From what i can tell with the test parts this stuff is going to be dent resistant. I havent tryed setting it on fire or dousing it with gas yet.
