PTG - How to check for Bondo or Body Filler
I was doing some testing on the fresh paint on the hood of a 1949 Chevy 5-Window Pickup Streetrod and here's what I found...
In the front part of the hood the paint thickness is all over the place. There is likely some repair work here and body filler under the paint.
When I checked the paint thickness closer to the windshield the paint thickness became more uniform in thickness...
Handy and very accurate the Defelsko PTG made in America
