Silverhook Big Boy Metal Filler, 250 ml BIG21

The first product I tried was much more expensive and came in three stupidly small tubes. They were rubbish. This is the real deal, easy to mix and use and it fills very nicely. It’s also easy to sand down to a smooth surface. Top marks

Sands really well and dries to a sendable finish very quickly

Having invested in a builders’ wheelbarrow many years ago, not many of the modern versions reach the solidity and build quality of my original. However, it has had many years of tough work - building and gardening - so I decided to reinforce all the joints and welds. This product, which is the typical base filler and hardener mix, has good reviews.These products are always “tricky” to apply, e.g. too much hardener on a hot day, it will go off very quickly, so read the instructions on setting times and temperatures.So far, so good, “antique” but solid wheelbarrow looking all set for a few more years in the garden after a low cost refurbishment. All reviews of modern wheelbarrows denting easily and handles bending are a thing of the past.Like many of these products, it has a strong smell, so apply in a well ventilated space; ensure the metal to which is being applied is dry and give it a good wire brushing and dust before application.

This was fabulous! Great for fixing holes on cars, easy to understand, easy to mix and easy to use. This stuff - when set, which only takes 15 minutes - is as tough as metal plus it’s easy to sand so you would never know the hole was ever there. Highly recommended!

It really does, works very well and helps give a perfect finish

This filler is the real deal. I used this alloy filler to repair a sizable chunk that had come off my BMW alloy. This was due to a repair shop hitting one of the spokes with a hammer when attempting to take a bolt off and then decided to use a wire brush to clean it and then spray paint it with a standard grey spray, so I thought I'd be better attempting the fix myself than leaving it with him.I couldn’t be more satisfied with this product. It applied smoothly, adhered well, and filled the area with ease. The consistency was just right, making the application process straightforward and stress-free. Once set, it sanded down cleanly and blended perfectly. This product worked exactly as expected—no surprises, just solid performance. Be sure to use plenty of masking tape when applying. £7 for a large 250ml sized tub is a bargain! Highly recommend. See my photos for the before and after pictures. Now I am just waiting for the colour matched paint. 5 star product.

Top metal filler I use it on my boat and never had a problem with it
