- In this video, I use Bondo Wood Filler to fix a knick in my door trim. When I took my door off of the hinges, I accidentally hit the wooden trim. I have used Bondo in projects before and I like how user friendly it is and I am always happy with the outcome. (I am not sponsored by Bondo.)

Thanks for watching! 😃
You need a collapsable chisel! 🤣💪🏾
I recently had my house painted, when I was going through what I wanted done with the painter, we noticed some dry rot around a loose knot on a piece of facia. He recommended that about six feet of the fascia be replaced and it would add $450 to the price of the paint job. I told that I would take care of it myself. I went online and bought some wood hardener and wood Bondo for less than $50 . I chiseled out the dry rot and loose knot; once I was down to solid wood, I treated the cavity with a liberal dose of hardener. After that stuff cured ( the treated area was as hard as a rock), I filled in the hole with a few layers of the Bondo. After a little Surform plane work and sanding, I gave it a coat of primer. The repaired area is indistinguishable from the rest of the facia. Great stuff!
I was happy to see you use Bondo correctly by cutting it down while it's in the plastic state. It's designed to harden to the plastic state where you can work it with a knife or cheese grater type file to quickly get it close to the final shape. Then as you said it will harden rock hard for sanding.
So many DIYers let it harden 100% and then spend hours sanding...
You are an artist! Using the flashlight to see imperfections is a great hint, I'll try to remember.
Ive seen people use regular bondo for wood. I didnt know they made actual wood filler. Now I know!
I would have stuck a piece of gum there and colored it with a crayon... not as good but much easier :)
😂 hey that works too!
Lazy! 😁
@@fredrubble4305 Yes! and I have a lot of appreciation for @TheFixerHomeRepair to do things right instead of the easy/lazy ways.
😂🤣😂
Pre-Matt🤣🤣
Love your videos, concise & well detailed for DIYers! Thank you!😊
You got it! 😁👍 Thanks for watching!
The chisel is the secret star of this video 😉
I am going to try this on my banister this weekend.🤞Wish me luck!
Perfect timing! Got a small ding on the door trim last weekend from the new fridge delivery, this looks like something I could do!
Great job Matt.
Hey Matt-well done; it turned out great. I don't know if anyone else said this, but taping or masking off an area will minimize much of the time spent removing the excess bondo. It also helps reduces the risk of more damage via a slip of the chisel. :( Great job and a 👍 as always. God bless.
Yes, I mask off as well.... It really helps.... I use this stuff all the time for wood rot repairs in tough areas.
Love your tips and watching you work your magic! Nicely done!
I have used the Auto body version of Bondo to fix things like that around the house . Who knew there was a wood version of Bondo. I guess I just dont get out very often.
Nice job. Thanks for posting
My brother used car filler on my wooden windows, they looked fabulous
Currently my to-go videos while in college.
Very cool. Thank you!
The Fixer 👍
I use the red Bondo glazing putty that comes in a tube. Just squeeze on a blade and you can fill every nick in your house.
Sands out super smooth in about 5-10 min.
You should make a QNA on how you like about your footing floors
Do you need to buy more hardener for a can that size?
Great fix, Matt. 👍🤩
Thanks, Jennifer!
Nice 👍🏼 info 😊❤👍🏼
Good video
Awesome job!
I would have gotten it all over me and everything else.
Then I would have damaged the area even worse, by using the chisel.
That when I would just put a blob of paint over it and called it a day. 😮
i wonder if the company ever considered just adding some dye to either part to neutralize the color, like if it goes on wood wouldn't you want it to not be slightly green? lol
But that would make sense… 🤷♂️🤣🤣
Wish I would have seen this video 2 wks ago I just had to go over all my wood trim where the paint chip cuz someone painted over stain without sanding first i didnt want to have to strip all that paint off
Looks awesome! Do you recommend using Bondo on dings all along the door trim?
Could you drill a couple of small holes in the knick to make the bondo grab harder? Or unnecessary?
I used joint compound n sanded I first tried with heat gun too much work after spending 2 months citrus stopping wood stairs
What trim paint is that?
Some type of semi-gloss. I use valspar storm coat exterior satin on my interior and exterior. High Hide White.
No lie, I actually blew on the screen after you sanded.
🤣🤣
Bondo is like the ductape of the carpentry world.
Ironically, I find larger repairs of that type to be easier than small ones.
Totally off topic, but dang, you've got nice nails 🤣
My brain is saying..... hold up a sec I'll get you my minature chisel. ( I build dollhouses, so I have little ity ones)
👍
Try water putty.
How'd you know I nicked my door? Now I can fix it with confidence. :D
YOu didn't cut that sandpaper, why are you fronting?
Wood filler would have worked since it’s not a high wear location.
I suppose but depending on the filler I would be worried about even the vibration of the door closing loosening it up. Definitely would not use any kind of spackle.
Just paint it white and move on
Sure, you can if you want. 👍
