Anyone use plastic bumper filler on hard bodies?
I've heard of one person using it on the Tamiya Club forum.
 
I’ve molded many styrene body’s . You can use body filler, but gets pricey. I recommend a quality two part glazing / spot putty. I will always tell you to fill major areas in with styrene, then smooth over

That is toooooo SWEET , she's is clean !
 
Would there be any issues with the spot putty and cracking from a little flex? Just concerned with the truck roll down a hill or something that the putty will crack.
