A question about bondo.

[MrJoesvault]

I'm in the middle of my first build and I was wondering should I use two coats of bondo or one.

If you are lucky you will only have to use one. But most likely once you sand it down you will find some imperfections and have to apply a second or even third coat.

It's very general question. Sometimes you use one. Two. Sometimes 10.
And those aren't coats - you aren't coating everything or you could loose a lot of details.

Word of advice about bondo layers (this is a general tip) that I wish I learned earlier on: Do thin coats. Don't make a huge batch and slap it on, I guess not unless you've already well experienced, but yea. Thin layers means less time sanding to smooth and greater control overall, plus control of the overall thickness
