Bondo or Poly Spot Putty
Bondo is what I use to repair knicks and scratches, but one of the guys I work with does furniture building and repair and he suggested I use a polyester spot putty because
the material is extremely fine compared to the grittier bondo.
What do you guys use?

I've been using the same stuff as bigfish after he recommended it and I ran out of two part wood epoxy.
The stuff sands great, cheap and readily available.

i never thought bondo was Gritty....
you can make a super hot red batch that dries
really fast.... but the min wax is probably better
for plugs as bondo is quite porous...

I use the MinWax as well, but have Bondo on hand as well. Sometimes I use Bondo in a pinch.

Save those plugs for me, I prefer the scratch and dent plugs! They catch more fish and cast farther....
