We brought our 1968 C10 SEMA Truck build over to No Coast Custom and Rod Shop to walk through how to go from metal work to body filler and prep for the paint job. We’ll show you how to use Bondo body filler as we apply it to our Chevy C10 body work.

Before starting on the body work, we sanded off the e-coat so we could get a nice surface to put some epoxy on and let that sit for a week. Then we sanded over the epoxy as a guide coat to show any low spots around the tailgate that need some extra work. You don’t want to sand through to the bare metal, just enough to give the filler something to bite into.

When it comes to mixing the body filler, it’s good to pour the mixture into about a three inch by three inch circle with a single stripe of the hardener across it, but be sure to refer to the can for specific instructions.

Perfecting using Bondo body filler may seem like a lot of work, but if you break it into small steps and follow along the project gets simpler.
