In terms of the ratio, I believe you do not need to be too precise. Adding a little hardener goes a long way, and the stuff sets up right away. The hardener line was just as long as a paper clip on a 4-foot long piece I put an inch dollop of bondo filler on it and it worked perfectly.
Bondo Wood Filler, based on my experiences, requires a temporary barrier in order to form a vertical edge of 1". The mixed compound is not soupy, but it is not so firm as to keep it from slumping unless you are building up the vertical edge in small layers (1/4") of compound.

The Not-Different-The Not-Different-The But- The A good thing is that you can dry items in a couple of minutes (maybe 2). The downside is that no longer are you able to be creative. When it's mixed, use the whole batch since it's a waste to throw it away. *The instructions are pretty specific about how the product should be mixed. To be honest, I cheat a bit by mixing just enough compound with hardener I'll have some extra time to work with so that would be great. Sometimes I seem to get off without a hitch. There is a large can of filler to use-- A quart can is kind of like a There is a bit of a challenge in getting the last 10% out of the can since the filler is a thick putty.

As part of the Bondo Wood Filler can, I received a red hardener, which I mixed with beige/tan Bondo to give it The color of the hardener wasn't an issue for me since I planned to prime and paint the repaired area. However, if you don't want to change the color of the Bondo, you should use the white hardener. Based on the amount of hardener used, the product hardens quickly, and the surface can be easily sanded. In the past, I have used less hardener to allow more mixing and applying time.

3M Bondo Wood Filler was used to patch the holes that carpenter bees caused on our large outdoor swing made from wood. It has turned out very well for me. There may have been too much hardener used by the people who complain about the Filler hardening too fast. This can be solved by using less hardener, which will then give you more time to let the Wood Filler dry. It will still harden but with a little longer set time. * For those of you who have used automobile bondo, this Wood Filler is similar.
Despite its basic functionality, it is an inefficient use of funds. There are pros While it is a decent product, it may not meet all of my requirements.
* set up However, the can is only about 1/3 filled, despite its weight being the same as the amount written on the can. Having a small amount available means you will not be able to do a large job with a quart, but rather with a third of the quart. I did not realize how thin it was before setting, since it is slightly firmer than Greek yogurt, so it drips a lot, and even if I manage to catch the drips, they are difficult to clean In addition, the smell is rather unpleasant, making it necessary to air out the room even when the dish is.
However, the same works with automotive body putty, which appears to be exactly the same except for its You can get a gallon of gas for the price of a quart of fuel at an auto supply store.
I just used it on two rotten frames. Rather than purchasing new wooden windows, we thought it was worth a try. You will need to work with small amounts because it dries fast. The process is as follows. I imagine that once it dries, it will be This board works well to sand and to paint. It will take some time to tell if it stays intact, but my picture still looks good as it did when I finished it about a month ago. Before applying this stuff, I highly recommend using wood hardener. A jar of Minwax is around $10 and works really well. Update
It has been 15 months since my windows were installed and they are still in excellent condition. There is no sign of rot in the wood. The summer is going to bring one more window project for me. As a matter of fact, I prefer to do this in the summer so that I can place the wood out in sunlight to ensure that it's The speed of the painting process is also improved.
You shouldn't mix too much at once, and you shouldn't use too much hardener either. Despite having plenty of hardner, we found no need to purchase any more besides what came with it. Small and medium size putty knives were ready for application, and I mixed the mixture on a new paper plate for each. As you get older, it becomes harder and harder (5-) It may take between 10 and 20 minutes, depending on the temperature. You can do almost any repair if you have an orbital sander and/or a drill that has a sanding pad attachment, like a Dremel MultiMax with the sanding pad attachment. Exterior repairs required the use of this type of material, such as replacing window sills and doing trim work. It is good for both interiors and exteriors The sand works very well and you don't have to wait long before you're able to finish it. There is a lot at stake. If I had to make a large repair, I would usually give it a quick sanding. I wear gloves and a mask, so it only takes a few minutes. There is a good chance of dust blowing around after wood filler is applied without a hardner. I have used wood fillers without hardners, and they take awhile to cure before they can be sanded. If it rains, the mess can become worse. Please take note Any area that has any decay issues should always be treated with Bondo Wood Rot Repair before filling it in with wood filler.
