Does it last? I've heard from everyone that one-part putties crack and shrink.

It dont last...Know from experience...plus takes hours to fully dry to sand it...The two part is the way to go....Paul set me straight on that...

Trucker, you can get evercoat on the bay for bout 30 bucks and you will have enough for practice and future builds.

Well, here's what happened. I went to the auto shop place (Winchester Auto) to get a glaze and a hardener. So I picked out 3M bondo Glazing & Spot Putty, and like 3M bondo hardener, and took it up to the checkout. I explained my situation to the guy behind the counter, and he said this should work. Although, he told me that the putty I picked doesn't require a hardener. So, probably because I just wanted the truck to get finished, I bought the putty. It's not the super Evercoat glaze, but I'm going to try it. I applied it like it said, and it's drying as we speak. I hope it turns out okay, but I really have to try it before blowing 40 bucks on a pint of Evercoat. Even so, they are really small cracks, and it will probably be fine. Worst case scenario it cracks in a few months or something and I buy the Evercoat to re-do it. Actually, worst case scenario, it cracks in an hour and the force of the cracking breaks the world in half. So, if that happens, my bad.
But in all seriousness, I know this probably wasn't the best way to go... I remember you guys saying "No bondo!" and stuff, but I just want to see it for myself. It sounds stupid, but I need to see it to believe it.

Anyway! Here's a pic to keep you guys happy!



Thanks for the suggestions guys, we shall see how it goes.
