Re: Meguiar's No.7 Glaze for Single Stage - Bondo?
No problems...
Just massage everything down with the #7 - even bare metal.
Slather it on, massage it really well. Let it soak over night, massage it off.
If one application looks good repeat until you feel like doing a Happy Dance.
Be sure to get the high overhead hood shot. (before)

Yes, the test was the tail gate and so far the owner is pleased, even had him helping this afternoon. Applied a coat today and with Father's Day will come back and do the second coat in a couple of days.
Truck is a 1968 and all original paint for the most part. Owner removed the hood emblem and we found the original paint in very good condition. That will be the test to compare how much life we can bring into worn 50+ years of life of a work truck.
Paint is acting like a straw, so will need at least two more bottles to get it shimmering, our test stop was moving the right direction after two heavy coats. Doing one coat, sit for 24-hours, wipe and reapply! A very satisfying experience.
Thanks for the coaching and tips.

I would not worry about No.7 and Bondo, the "oils" are not going to break down the chemical bonds of Bondo molecules.
Generally, the only way to remove Bondo, other than mechanical means, is to soften it with heat and then scrape.

Re: Meguiar's No.7 Glaze for Single Stage - Bondo?
At first I thought you were going to be wasting you time, but it did give it a nice little shine. And if he is wanting to keep the Patina look, you gave him a nice shine and some protection.....
Good work.

Owner was pleased as it was keeping the patina yet gave a renewed shimmer to that old paint.
Nice work Kirby!
And the paint on this 1968 Chevy Truck will easily last another 53 YEARS!
