With the current bodywork underway certain urethane parts are requiring a little filler just to level out a few imperfections. Came across Polyflex which I think might be U.S. product http://www.spraygunsdirect.co.uk/index. ... vjQBJ.dpbs Anybody using that? Possibly a good filler for us here in the U.K. that'll work with urethane? Anyone care to comment, what are you using? Thanks |

The U.S is big on Evercoat (as it's their homebrand) , it's starting to filter across here over the past few years. Their Rage Gold has a very good reputation. The brand is equivalent to our friend Upol, that carries 2 flexible fillers: ISOPON BUMPER FILL, and then their PLAST X range. 3m also have plastic flexible adhesives that normally come in dual tubes (so that you get the correct mix when squeezing from a dispenser gun). I would ideally go with 3m but their prices are definitely premium, for anything including masking tape. I've not had to repair plastic before, so i can't speak for any of the products though i'm afraid! I think with any of the ones mentioned you will certainly get the best repair Are you taking pics of all the repairs as they go along? Be good to see some project progress Cheers! Ray |

Thanks for the recommendations 3M do decent quality products, but are they completely worth the price? I think not, good as they are there's quite a few other manufactures supplying products of the same high standard without a price tag quite as high as 3M's.3m also have plastic flexible adhesives that normally come in dual tubes (so that you get the correct mix when squeezing from a dispenser gun).

Ray I went with Polyflex, from the reviews it does look to be a decent product worthy of the job. I have been taking photos. I'll post em up pretty soon as the work progresses |
