− | *For body lines and peaks on hoods or doors, use a contour gauge to make a custom plastic filler spreader:
| + | |
− | #Place the contour gauge on an undamaged area to get the contour.
| + | |
− | #Trace the contour onto a plastic body filler spreader.
| + | |
− | #Trim out the shape on the spreader.
| + | |
− | *Cut filler spreaders to the desired size.
| + | |
− | *To clean body filler spreaders, use 1/4 of a 3M scuff pad with lacquer thinner on it. A metal quart can with a lid makes a safe way to store the scuff pad along with some lacquer thinner.

− | *For reproducing small parts such as gaskets, use plastic body filler to make a mold:
| + | |
− | #If the part doesn't already exist, a replica has to be made in its shape (for example, carve it out of soft plastic).
| + | |
− | #Apply some wax to the part (this will act as a mold release), and lay it down on a piece of wax paper.
| + | |
− | #Mix up some body filler, and place it in a small cup or bowl (the cap on a plastic jug may work).
| + | |
− | #While the filler is still wet, place it over the part.
| + | |
− | #When the filler hardens, it can be removed and used as a mold.
| + | |
− | *When applying body filler upside down, apply the filler to a sheet of thin plastic (such as the side of a milk jug) and press it into place. When the filler hardens, peel the plastic away.
| + | |
− | *use an aluminum ruler to find high and low spots such as doors..hood to fender..or trunk lid to fender ect..
| + | |
− | &if using filler with hatonite you can sand filler while still tacky this will shread the filler smooth easily with hardly any pressure,when finished follow up with a poyester glase or add filler thinner to your finale coat of filler.
