Use Ultra-Fine Filler at the finishing stage before painting. Ultra-Fine Body Filler has excellent sanding properties and will also grip onto metal, wood, bridging fillers, concrete, and some PVCs. As it is corrosion-resistant, Ultra-fine Filler makes a perfect exterior filler for areas requiring a paint finish e.g. window frames, walls, car body panels, etc Step 1 Ensure surface to be filled is free from grease and loose dirt. Brush off surface dust with damp cloth and leave to dry. Step 2 Mix the filler with hardener in the ratio supplied, (e.g. half tin of filler - half a tube of hardener) thoroughly to obtain a uniform colour. Step 3 Apply mixture immediately with firm pressure using spreader and build up to required level. Paste will start to harden within 5 minutes. Note: Hardening times will vary. Step 4 Leave to set for approximately 1 hour. Once dry surface can be sanded and wiped over. Review: Super fine - First time using any kind of body filler to fill in two indicator 'holes' where my old indicators used to mount to on my motorcycle's ABS body panels. The mounting spots for the front indicators were about 20mm x 30mm with a short recess before curving out into the rest of the panel. I had re-wired the headlight 'aux/running' rights to be indicators by swapping the W5W bulbs for amber LED W5W units and swapping some cables so it meant I no longer needed the bulky stalk indicators and could fill in the hole. This stuff worked just as I had hoped. I was going to use some mouldable glue like 'Sugru' however I thought this would be a more permanent and neater solution. The only difficulty I had is that I didn't want to use the entire tub at once as I didn't need that much. I only needed to use about 1/10th whats in the tub but theres no measurements to how much hardener I need per random amount of whats in the tub. I did it by eye and I appeared to have got it right as it hardened just fine. It stinks, as a warning. It lets of a lot of vapour and you wanna do this outside in a well ventilated area. Mask up the area you're working with as you don't want this stuff to cure on any surface you don't want to get ruined. When it was fully cured (I left it for 2 days, this wasn't required I was just able to) it was time to sand it down to match the curvature of the panel. It's super satisfying and so so easy to sand this material as it just turns into powder and doesn't clog up sandpaper. Once finished, it's immediately ready for paint and it takes a coat super well. The end results were far from perfect, as I said this was my first time, I wasn't expecting a bodyshop finish. Close up, you can tell, but that wasn't my goal I just wanted to fill them in. I'll edit my review if they crack or fall out as it does say on the tin that it *may* not stick to some plastics. However it felt very firm and didnt move at all during sanding. In summary, this stuff is great to work with and has amazing sanding properties. I highly recommend using this stuff instead of mouldable glue as you'll get a much better finish. However, be prepared as it's harder to do and you need much more prep beforehand. Review: Great finish - Great finish and easy application. Did my repair just fine. It mixes easily with minimal odour. Perfect for a DIY car fix. ## Features - Fine Compound - Ultra Smooth Finish - Added Leveling Properties ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00C9D5T70 | | Best Sellers Rank | 1,043 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 10 in Fillers, Adhesives & Sealants | | Brand | SILVERHOOK | | Colour | gray | | Compatible Material | Concrete, Metal, Wood | | Container Type | Can | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 5,392 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05036029046830 | | Included Components | Applicator | | Item Form | Putty | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Type Name | Body Filler | | Item Volume | 250 Millilitres | | Item form | Putty | | Manufacturer | Silverhook Ltd | | Manufacturer Part Number | BIG11 | | Material | Wood, metal, concrete | | Model Number | BIG11 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Repositionable | | Special feature | Repositionable | | Specific Uses For Product | car,boat,home | | Specific uses for product | car,boat,home | | Unit Count | 250.0 millilitre | | Viscosity Level | Low | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SILVERHOOK - **Item form:** Putty - **Material:** Wood, metal, concrete - **Special feature:** Repositionable - **Specific uses for product:** car,boat,home ## Images ![Big Boy Body Filler 250ml Ultra Fine Lightweight - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710xdgTvzPL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the mix ratio of this, please? And can you buy the two components separately if needed?** A: Take out enough of the white paste you think you will need, then roll the mix and then arrange it into a 50 mm long strip equal thickness on the plastic lid Then squeeze the hardner along that length and mix quickly until you see a slight change in colour without any white only showing. A pinkish shade. Now quickly use it, you dont have much time, I think it said on the can 5 min, in that time it goes hard. See the idear below paste XXXXXXXXXX hardner xxxxxxxxxxxx Equal lengths thats all, forget about the thickness, just get the length right. Dont count the Xx above, its ment to show the paste is the same thickness along its length. Then the hardner same length, same thicknesses on top of the paste length How to make something complicated? try typing an answer in a small box on a cell phone screen. **Q: What is the viscosity like when applying this? Is it thin/thick, sticky, and easy to apply?** A: If you add the correct amount of hardener and mix quickly, it's quiet sloppy...however as each second goes by it beome as it starts hardening the viscosity increases and it's quite sticky and messy to work with, if your doing a large deep fill...in my case about 2 inches in length and haf inch deep and wide....Wear gloves.VicG **Q: Will this work for alloy wheels, I need to fill curb scratches and fill in a few little chucks that were taken out of the wheels? Thanks** A: This item is body filler and should be ok to fill scrapes and chunks on allow wheels **Q: cancan I use this product for large gaps? 1 metre long and 1 cm deep** A: Yes, it may be better to fill in a couple of layers to avoid cracking and shinkage when drying. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super fine *by M***X on 4 June 2023* First time using any kind of body filler to fill in two indicator 'holes' where my old indicators used to mount to on my motorcycle's ABS body panels.

It mixes easily with minimal odour. Perfect for a DIY car fix. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great, but please give better instructions! *by G***T on 26 June 2020* Just to be clear, this product is generally very good. I am using it to fill holes and gouges in an old table I'm upcycling and it sticks perfectly, sands down to a lovely finish, and takes paint nicely. I highly recommend it for woodworking. However...the mixing instructions are useless to anyone who is not using the whole tin in one mix. To be fair I can imagine that people using this for car body repairs do just that. Let me paraphrase the mixing instructions - "mix and equal ratio of filler and hardener (eg. half a tin of filler to half a tube of hardener)". I laughed out loud at that instruction because the tin of filler is about fifteen times bigger than the tub of hardener! And the tube of hardener is opaque plastic - there's no way to tell how much is in there. I thought "this is easy...I can just weigh them out on a digital kitchen scale". But no...the tin of filler is measured in volume units (250 ml) and the tube of hardener is in weight units (15g). There's no way to easily measure out on the scales. So...my first batch set in about 90 seconds - probably because I added too much hardener and also it was baking hot in the room. My second batch was much better. I left the tin in my wine fridge (12 degrees C) overnight and used a bit less hardener. It went rubbery in 5 mins (at which point you can't use it anymore) and was hard enough to sand in 10-15 mins. As I said, I'm very pleased with the finish, but I suspect I'm going to run out of hardener much quicker than I run out of filler, and better instructions would have helped to avoid that. ## Frequently Bought Together - Silverhook BIG11 Body Filler , 250-Millilitre, gray - STEBRUAM Sandpaper 120 to 3000 Grits, Wet and Dry Sandpaper for Cars Polishing Metals Walls Wood Furniture Sanding, 42 Sheets Sand Paper Assorted 9x3.6 Inch - JENOLITE Primer Filler Spray Paint | GREY | High Fill Multi-Surface Primer Paint | Fills Small Dents & Scratches | Perfect For Car Bodywork, 3D Printer Models & More | 400ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/69356105-big-boy-body-filler-250ml-ultra-fine-lightweight](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/69356105-big-boy-body-filler-250ml-ultra-fine-lightweight) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
