Have some deep scratches and rust pits on the extensions on my older
Powermatic 66 table saw. Thought of filling with bondo, but think there is
probably a better product. Any recommendations?
Thanks

I forgot to mention the most important reason I called him
an idiot: please Google "undersigned group:rec.woodworking".
He is ONE of the morons who think I give a flying
patootie that they have "shunned" me. I'm happy as a pig in
slop that there is almost ZERO hassling on the Wreck now. I
can concentrate of WW posts. (Except for this little
diversion, which I shall promise to ignore in the future.
Thanks for your co-operation in keeping the Wreck irritation
free!)
If you quote what I just wrote, Keeter (UA100) will see it;
HE doesn't want to see my posts. Please respect his wishes.

He didn't, he was just presenting his title, albeit with odd punctuation.

just because there are millions upon millions of vehicles
out there that have bondo on their metal bodies. Granted,
it's smart to "key" it in, but it will stick pretty darn
well, unless you flex the substrate. ALSO, there may be
BETTER solutions than Bondo for the TS, BUT to categorically
say that it won't bond to metal is incorrect.

One of the metal filled epoxies would be my choice

Hurts more than helps.
THe polyester fillers I've used seem to have no problem sticking to metals.

A product named "Devcon" comes to mind.

JB Weld is a metal-filled epoxy for repairing metal dings. I used to use a
product called Marine-Tex years ago for repairing motorcycle cases.
Fantastic stuff. The ads for it said it was even used for emergency
repairs of engine heads! You could butter in some Marine-Tex, sand it
smooth, and you're good to go!

Then what, pray tell, are they using for glue?

[Missed original post.]
Why bother? clean up, make sure the top isn't bumpy as a result [sand
if necesary], then leave alone except for some rust treatment to deter
any more. A table top doesn't have to be "solid" to support a piece
of wood. Pits and cracks give it character, like an old face.

Forget ANY polyester based product such as Bondo, it won't bond to metal.
If these scratches and pits are purely of a cosmetic nature, why bother?

Here we go again! Don't be an ASSHOLE. You are one of the
undersigned who agreed to ignore (shun) me. By responding
just one level away from my post, you are essentially
responding to ME. You are the SECOND moron who has broken
his promise. Get back to shunning me COMPLETELY.

"Bondo" is a polyester resin loaded with talc so that it can be sanded to a
fine edge.
Polyester is a lousy adhesive.
New polyester doesn't even bond to old polyester which is why epoxy is used
to repair polyester based fiberglass boats.
Bondo won't bond to the metal, the best you get is an interlocking of the
repair patch to the metal part being repaired.

Huh? They use it on cars. What do you mean "it won't bond to metal"?

Just out of curiosity, how does Unisaw A100 agreed with Lew regarding
the need to [not] fix cosmetic scratches lead you to call him an idiot?
