Should I do more than just one on the outside and inside? I was under the assumption that you only had to put one coat of bondo/rondo on and then it was done after sanding, but I have a feeling that's not the case haha. About how many coats should I put on it? Also, say theres 4 layers on a piece (this is totally hypothetical) would the process be something like this?:
1. 1st layer of bondo
2. Sand with low grit SP
3. 2nd layer of bondo
4. Sand with medium grit SP
5. 3rd Layer of Bondo
6. Sand with high grit SP
7. 4th layer of bondo
8. Sand with very high grit SP
or would it be
1. 1st layer of bondo
2. Sand with low grit, medium grit, high grit, AND very high grit SP
3. 2nd layer of bondo
4. Sand with low grit, medium grit, high grit, AND very high grit SP
5. 3rd Layer of Bondo
6. Sand with low grit, medium grit, high grit, AND very high grit SP
7. 4th layer of bondo
8. Sand with low grit, medium grit, high grit, AND very high grit SP
P.S. I'm very prepared to spend as long as it takes on this project and I'm very patient, I just like to make things, even if they're not of the highest quality. I mean I dont expect to have a production-type prop at the end of this but I'd sure like to try for it
Thanks guys!
