Don't blame for going this route. Since it's a work truck.

The green filler is called Dura glass it is reinforced with fibers to add strength it goes on first for deeper deeper damage than its top coated with a finner smoother filler made by Evercoat called Rage Gold. Bondo Brand filler is like over the counter. If you want the good stuff you need to go to an Auto Body supplier.

The metal came back better than I thought I used the access holes on the underside of the gate with a few PDR tools to work the crease and deeper dents out first and after I got the metal to quit flexing back it was ready for mud.

Compared to this, rotary is child's play.

Let's play mud and bring defect correction to a new level. lol

I have one in the tool box but I like the feel of hand board to rough in. With 36 g it cuts fast than 80 g ,hand block w/ 10 in and 120g, 180g and Top coat with Evercoat Rage Gold and than switch to "BERTHA" A Hutchins4.5 x 8.5 flat board D/A 180g than 240g than prime.
