So I went to my local Farm and Barn the other day and I looked for Bondo
I found Glass stuff, Plastic Metal, and Body Filler.......I figured the Fiberglass stuff wasn't what I wanted, but I'm still confused--Plastic Metal, or Body Filler?
What's the difference?

Bondo is Body Filler. Its just a brand of Body Filler.

Ok, thanks.
So why do they have the plastic metal stuff which is just as much as the body filler, but contains half the amount?
Is it better, easier......?

For certain values of better, yes. I think it's stronger, which is better for some things, but it'll be harder to sand to shape.

Get the body filler.

Is the plastic metal like rock-metal hard? Like just about unsandable?
