Default Best product . . . . . .

Hi everyone, what is the best product to use to "fill-in" scratches on plastics (besides sanding)? I'm painting my bike this week and i'm just wondering what supplies I need to give the guy to get the job done well. JB weld? Any suggestions would be great!!!

Thanks

you can use plastic weld, bondo, etc...or easiest is probably ABS plastic (aka plumber's glue available at any Home Depot).

For scratches i might would go for something a little smoother like Icing. Its used to fill pin holes and sand scratches in bondo. If you want to take the time you can use filler primer. You will have to spray it and sand it, spray it and sand it, etc, until you get it nice and smooth.
