I used it on the center tail fairing of my f3 and seems to hold up very well. I used normal spray primer I had laying around and put about 6 coats of paint.

Okay, I sprayed the right side cowl with Krylon Fusion (gloss black).....three coats and it looks pretty good. It dosen't really say in the instructions; can I spray a clear coat over it now or should I wait the 7 days for the paint to cure?

I put clear over it right away as to not have any marks in the paint. Even wiping it down the paint is soft. The clear with help protect the paint.

I know a lot of people say to use a putty or something else other than bondo on plastics for the small scratch/gouges but I guess I like using the filler.

The reason people say to use putty or glazes is because it sands easier and quicker. If you like using bondo, its just a personal preference. I do the same thing just because it comes in bulk. What kind of clearcoat did you use? Whenever I use the Duplicolor, it never seems to harden as well as an epoxy base clearcoat.
