Body damage repair
Good morning BGW team!
I am going to attempt some minor body work on my 2010 Tomberlin E-Merge, and want to make sure I am going about this correctly- I have never done anything like this before!
I read the sticky and pulled out the following excerpt:
“Now you can do any bodywork that needs to be done, for filling scratches and gouges a polyester based finishing putty works the best for that, unlike the heavier "Bondo type" filler the finishing putty sand easier and doesn't tend to leave pinholes. I usually sand the putty with 240-320 grit dry paper then wax and grease again, remember wipe on wipe off.”
Does this apply to all body repair? I read on the Tomberlin website that the bodies are made of ABS plastic. I have a gouge/tear on my wheel well and was hoping someone could tell me exactly what repair material to use. Pictures of the damaged areas attached.
Thank you all- I appreciate all the advice on this forum!
