What I bought was a gallon of Bondo and a 3" putty knife.

But while I was at the store, I took some time to look at all the different paints they have. They simply have everything a modder would need. As for the paints, every single color for every type of material.

On a side note, I couldn't get the plastic cover off of the Bondo, so I used the Dremel to get it off. On another side note, nevermind, I'm not going to get into that...

Man I wish we had stores with much paint in Australia on the shelves like that. Anything more then house paint is a pain is a pain to find around here you have to go to a couple of different stores/factory outlets to get what you need.

That is alot of bondo. Some body planning on installing 1/2 a dozen blowholes?

Well, I mainly wanted it for modding, but I also have to do some work on my car. And this way I'll always have some when I want to mod something.

I can testify that the Krylon plastic paint works like a charm! Used it to paint my xbox white. :D

Well that's good, because I planned on buying some to paint some plastic black.



What kind of paint would go good on bondo?

I haven't seen that big of a selection at the Super Wal Mart that I go to. It's pretty far away. The walmart that is close to me, quit selling auto paint supplies all together. At least I've got an AutoZone near my house. They have all the colors of Duplicolor. That stuff is awesome.

WalMart Employee: Sir, what are you doing?
DaJe: Um, snappin' some pics. *snap* *snap*
WME: But... you can't do that.
DaJe: Why? *snap* *snap*
WME: Cause... it's against company policy.
DaJe: What part?! What section?! Code?!
WME: Umm... the... umm.... carry on Sir. Good day.
DaJe: Thanks! *snap* *snap*

A guy did actually come by wheeling some boxes of stuff. But he just set it down and walked away, while I continuedto take pictures.

The employees don't care. They aren't making enough money to care.

Does that Krylon fusion make that big of a diference on plastic? I used Duplicolor Truck, Van, SUV on plastic and had mixed results. The front panel came out spectacular...but the sides ended up with texture like sandpaper...anyone have any experiance with Fusion?

you can walk around wal-mart drinking a Bottle of soda and eat a bag of Cheeto's and they'll never say anything to you.. and I know this personally because some of my family works there
