Using Bondo for Wood Repair
Here is how you do it:
Clean the rot out, and let it 100% dry > might have to use a heat gun.
Then brush on fiberglass resin with the hardener to give the filler something to stick to.
Then instead of using bondo use USC Duroglas fiberglass waterproof filler > much stronger.
use wax paper to build whatever forms you need to assist in getting the needed shapes. Wax paper can be adhered to your forms with automotive upholstery Aerosol Adhesive.
When the Duroglas starts to set up firm, pull the forms and wax paper to reveal your finished product .
Can sand, prime and paint repair as needed. Or if you want it natural, just brush on another coat of fiberglass resin and hardener to seal it from the elements. They make boats out of that stuff.
