I have noticed MANY RV's with the HS all smooth, and showing no signs of rivets. I must attribute this to the fact that the HS is the starting point that Van's recommends, and as new rivet-setters, I am sure many of us (including myself) are prone to the occasional OOOOOPS! As a first time builder, even though I have set thousands of rivets in my time (helping my grandfather years ago), I was a little bit rusty at first.
With this being said, what is THE filler of choice? Surely it can't be as simple as Bondo, or a similar product? I was speaking with the gentleman up at Jay Pratt's RV Central that helps with his prep and 'glass work (Troy, I believe), and he mentioned something special other than Bondo...For the life of me, I can't recall. Until I can get back over there and ask again, I thought I would throw the question out to the RV forum?
In my situation, I am not talking about completely filling anything. I just need to fill the occasional slip of the rivet set. Nothing major.
Any thoughts and/or suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any tips and/or advice!
