Hi:
Sorry for answer so late, well I use plastic wood as a filler, for imperfections on wood lures, but it sometimes is heavy and coarse, I need to thin it for fine or small dents or imperfections. As I see no one of you use it right?
Until now plastic wood works for me, but if anyone have better options I'm open to suggestions, one said bondo, minmax wood filler this last one can be founded in Home Depot?

Thanks

Hey victor, I Personally don't use any wood filler, just Epoxy for the belly weights, sorry not much help here.

hey Vic,  First nice to meet ya. then you should be able to find both at home cheapo or a like store also walmart has bondo its just body filler sticks well and is smooth. lil extra epoxy polyester type you can make any consistacy you want. acetone will thin plastic wood just can't work it as nice is all.
