The term BONDO maybe a little with local guys but not "as a whole is laughed at in the automotive refinishing industry" especially when pretty much all of them use it for different stages of body work. Funny how if you watch American Hot Rod, Rides and OverHaulin' to name a couple they all use BONDO. Now maybe it isn't the name brand just a term that has evolved from bodywork over the years but I seriously doubt it since they could probably get sued for using the name on national TV. Now the don't pile the crap in buy the bucket but they all use it to do final finishing on the custom cars they build. Go ahead and laugh at Chip Foose and you will get laughed at by millions.

If you have a big hole to fill you may want to start with some stuff called "Gorilla Hair" for a base. Not sure who makes it but this stuff comes in a gal. bucket and it looks like a giant glob of "Gorilla Hair" mixed with snot. It is very messy but is relatively light weight and holds extremely well
