Bondo aluminum siding.

Bondo all purpose putty is slightly thicker than other 2 part fillers making it ideal for repairing vertical surfaces such as doors walls and siding. Hello tony i have a low deck across the front of my house with 2 x 6 x 4 deck boards perpendicular to the house resting on the 4 edge of 2 redwood beams about 14 high and 22 long. A single can of bondo or an equivalent body filler can repair a great many dents and these materials are cheap easy to find and very easy to use. Ordinary bondo of the type used for auto body repairs consists of liquid polyester resin with several solid powdered fillers added to give it a putty like consistency.

The final step is to apply two coats of a paint designed specifically for use on aluminum siding. It may take a couple of years at the longest or in the worst case scenarios i have seen it fail in a matter of weeks. Just like caulk is too flexible to effectively fill large gaps in wood bondo is too stiff to do the same. He recommended bondo to repair voids gaps etc.

Aluminum siding repairs made by professional contractors can be quite expensive but by knowing how to do it yourself you ll spend next to nothing. When bondo or any auto body filler is used to patch wood it fails in a very short time.
