    Just found your channel today and already watched several videos. Cool ideas in this one. I have been using the cheese grader idea for years and it’s a huge time saver. Also cutting used grinder disks is something I learned from an old body man, maybe 30 years ago. Never throw out a grinding disk when just outside is warn. It gets real aggressive too when you make 4 or 5 sided. I subscribed and will be following your channel.

    Great to see these tips being shared, I have used the Rasp for decades. Exactly as you said timing is the key, but I t saves a ton of work and materials. The Wire for the ground is smart, it is important that the wire size used is big enough. If you solder the ends of the wire it will last without untwisting, another option is solder or crimp the wire making a circle, use the circle to wrap around the material, no vice grips needed, the ground clamp can hang off the wire loop.

    Great recommendation to trim filler before hardening. What really helps is to get a hand file to sharpen that paint scraper. Sharpen one side only so you can flip it over and ride the heel of the edge of sharpened bevel to “float” over the body filler without digging in.

    Hello , I was wondering if you can do a video on metal prep and what I mean is after da stripping down to metal what do you use to acid wash your metal? What do you use to coat metal? Do you use an epoxy or DTM what is your process so rust doesn’t build on metal after it’s stripped and primed or sealed with epoxy. Can you do a video on that process?

    Did you save on sandpaper I usually scrape my mud with the razor blade it takes off some of the stickiness. I usually use two different color hardeners red and then a blue it acts like The Pencil Trick and it stands out a lot better. If there's ever any pin holes I use a razor blade to squeeze my glaze in it. And I like the way as long as I can before I do my final blocking and let everything shrink as much as possible that way there's always less of any of your material. Great videos you have here you do quality work I've been doing body work for over 45 years you're actually a body man not a parts replacer not too many Metal Men around anymore everybody was sling the mud that ain't quality work that's not a Craftsman true Craftsman does metal work like you do in your videos.

The sail panels were gone as well as the window channel. Then I spot welded it all together and then welded the channel and the Dutchman panel and sail panel together and put it back in the car. It’s not going anywhere now. I’m just wanting to get the sail panels to the correct angle with the bondo now. I seen how you used the paint scraper and I thought it was pretty cool 😎. I’m going to have to find someone who has a 66 skylark or chevelle and see if I can do a card board mold of it. I did find out that no one makes the sail panels. I looked everywhere.

    I've used a stiff putty knife for over 30yrs. People tell me I'm doing it wrong because it jabs the filler. I just shake my head. The key to chemicals is the right amount.
    Roloc disc have really got expensive. I hate filler dust. I usually just tack a ground tab on. I use guide coat normally.
    There's another channel that a guy states using the door alignment tool is the wrong way to fix things. He actually tells people to run if you see a shop use it. I told him when used correctly, it's a valuable tool. He responded that fixing the door correctly and not bending the hinge is the correct way. What people are ignorant about is that even from the factory, sometimes thing don't align and are tweaked a little and often fender tabs/washers are used to raise or lower panels.
    The vehicles that are flawless are million dollar builds. Some vehicles are flawless, the other 99.9% are working man's vehicles.

    Here is a tip..thin the bondo down like you did but thin it way down and brush it on with a acid brush just like it was seam sealer over door bottoms or wherever you need to seam seal..it quickly drys, no need to sand as you want it to look like seam sealer..it drys fast so then you can prep and cut in the jams sooner.. unlike with seam sealer it takes forever to dry and when you go to prep you get into your sealer and screw it up

    Lead pencil LOL LOL, they haven't made a lead pencil in 30 years.
    35 years ago when Bondo was 5.50 dollars a gallon I used to cheese grade the hell out of it, now that it's 30 to $50 a gallon I'm more careful how I spread it, do very little cheese grating are carving. Thinning body filler with rosins is a no no too sticky, by the reducer.

      When you can buy the reducer or thinner that is made for Bondo a lot cheaper.
      and I have mixed hundreds of gallons of body filler in my lifetime I know how to mix freaking body filler.
      Way back then they didn't know any better.

    Jeez don’t use cardboard as a sheet it has hairs and absorbs resins. Use sheets or a metal board. Also only use honey to thin it when you have very minimal depth. Less than 1/8 inch with most.

      @@guzzifabrication3448 no offense to you my friend it’s just really a bad idea to use cardboard. It’s also not optimal to use honey for a first coat. Those thinners are good for sure but you don’t really see them being used as a first coat often because they are harder to sand as they can get tacky and gum up paper and they can’t be applied that thick. They are nice in some cases because they can go over paint. I’m not criticizing you just making an observation have a nice morning
