What is the best filler? Unfortunately I am not at the point where I can do sheetmetal work without the use of a little bit of filler. I wish I could get to the skill level where I can just use glaze. Which filler is the best.

I've read about the 3 in the title, about to go buy some and finish my project, need help though
 
but why would they sell, metallic filler? I hear the metallic fillers are VERY difficult to work, you go through disks pretty fast, etc. But is there a benefit to them. I dunno

I wonder if polyester would crack or something if there was a load on it (say floors) hmm

If your just talking what body filler is best to use, Rage gold is an awesome filler but pricey. I use the evercoat lightweight non clogging filler which really seems to be the best bang for the buck. A quality filler and a reasonable price.

it is real nice stuff, but, from what i remember you need a 2.0-2.2 tip to spray it nicely... i like ppg epoxy and 2k high fill...
