I also use the stuff and really like it. I doubt it's graphite. Ask 3M for a MSDS. It will list the major components. If primer will stick to it, I'm sure bondo will also.

I agree, that car is the wrong one for redlines. I really like the new Mustang (way better than the proposed Camaro), but redlines are better suited to a bigger 60's car in a plain color.

What about the cleaners and adheason promoters required with modern plastic bumper cover repair? Does endura repair require these steps?
