what is the substance Steve uses?

[cyclogenisis]

As far as I can see he uses something called dynaglass filler https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qBAXMXalaA&list=PL8nvsTUIpwBp1pyPXCJjGhSe5PGiUz3FA&index=3

But is there an alternative people use? I can't find that stuff in canada...

Short strand reinforced body filler, that's what you need to look for. Many companies make it, including 3M Bondo brand.

He also uses this for small pin holes and such that needs to be filled.

Sonus Mass and Matter is to be top notch stuff as well, many say better than the Evercoat Rage xtreme stuff

Sonus Matter > Smart light weight > Upol flyweight > Rage> dynalite > everything else.

Price excluded. I have and use all of these on a regular basis

Matter is a one pass one sand application. Zero sag. Fills and sands like nothing else period .

Smart brand is a 2 pass application, super easy to sand, very little sag. For the money it is very difficult to beat for most applications.

Upol, is a 2-3 application with sanding between coats. Also very easy to sand. Better suited for skim coats. Sags on heavy build up.

Rage. was all the rage couple of years ago. Minus the price. Good work ability. Will sag in heavy coats, good sanding. 3x the cost of Smart and Upol

Dynalite. (3M) 3M's new replacement for the feather weight filler category. Still sags like bondo, impossible to sand past green stage, short work ability time. Hard as a rock cured. Priced close to Smart and Upol

Hope this helps

I LOVE that Upol you mentioned King, I completely agree with you. It's definitely good for a finisher since it's so runny. You can't build up with it. It sands like a freaking dream though and it's definitely my favorite. The Smart light weight has me interested, I'll have to see if I can find it.

If I made a living and made some serious supplemental income with custom work, I'd consider the Sonus. I can't justify the cost for what I do though. I'm sure it's a beautiful product, just not for me.
