Bondo?

[Guest]

I started stripping gas tank paint and came across what you see in the picture. Is this Bondo? https://www.dropbox.com/s/qnmg1xud6j...B1%5D.jpg?dl=0

Hard to tell from that picture.


I see various things that are black, silver, red, and apparently white. Which one of these are you asking about?

The white part. You can see where I dug into it with scrapper edge. Its under black and on top of red.

If the tank is dented $ to donuts it is plastic filler. Grind it all out and refill with fine fiberglass reinforced waterproof filler. If you can pop out part of the dent before hand so much the better.

Looks like bondo to me.

I wire brushed it off. Its was bondo. And there is a dent. I've seen guys dish gas tanks with rounded plastic hammers. I making a bobber so this gives me reason to dish this tank, since there's already a dent there.
