Hey I'm using body filler on my case and there keeps being little dimpley things in it when sanding (sorry i can't photo) i'v seen some people use fiber glass etc ontop before do you think this would help?
thanks
 
not being mean but sounds like you are either adding to much hardner or not working it enough before you apply it to the case

first thing to make sure is to add about a pea size piece of hardner to a golfball of filler
and work it to amke sure it is properlymixed together but here comes the difficult bit if you work ti to much you could have the opposit affect as it has had time for pieces to dry in it.

also i have hear fibre glass works well someone on here not long ago made a whole case out of it might be a idea to ask him sorry i couldnt be more help

I find you get dimples etc in filler if you have left it a tyad too long before applying it or you keep messing with it once you have laid it down. Mixing is missiion critical. Under mixing as daniel says in not good. Localised harder will cause rapid curing of little pellets. Thing is filler should be used in layers unless you're not bothered about sanding it for ages afterwards.
