I know rondo is the mixture of resin and bondo body filler

but which one should i use for detail my armor?
i use rondo as a first layer on my shin mkVI armor
 
Rondo is use mostly to harden the armor on the inside with bondo being used on the outside for smoothing and detail.
 
Bondo on the outside for the most part. It dose depend on what it you're detailing tho. I will say that bondo is allot easier to sand that rondo.
 
Rondo is usually a lot harder and more difficult to detail. I'd recommend bondo and spot putty. BTW, this should probably be placed in the creation (pepakura) area not the 3d modeling area.


Cheers.

Question about rondo- mixed up a batch and it's tacky, could it be Old bondo, bad mix, or not enough cure agent? Any way to fix? it is a relatively thin batch on the inside of the armor, which has a bit of room (1/2 inch for padding)so another layer would just be heavy and not impossible.
