Vehicle fillers

Vehicle fillers are essential products for car repair and detailing, and their correct application is vital for maintaining a flawless, imperfection-free body. For an expert company like Pinturas Camp de Turia, with nearly three decades of experience in the painting and detailing sector, knowing and using quality fillers makes all the difference in every vehicle repair.

What are vehicle fillers?

Automotive body fillers are paste or cream-based products primarily used to repair, fill, and level imperfections on vehicle body surfaces. They are used in specialized workshops to cover scratches, dents, and defects resulting from impacts or accidents. Once applied, they create a smooth, uniform surface, ready for painting or other finishes.

These products are typically composed of polyester resins, catalysts, and mineral fillers that provide specific properties of hardness, elasticity, and adhesion. In addition, there are multipurpose putties suitable for both metal and plastic surfaces, as well as putties formulated for specific materials such as aluminum, fiberglass, or tin.

Main types of automotive fillers

The Camp de Turia Paints catalog includes varieties such as:

  • Multifunctional low-density putty
  • Universal filler putty
  • Specific putty for plastics (Poly-Flex)
  • Polyester putty for gun
  • Aluminum putty
  • Tin putty
  • Fiberglass putty
  • Putty for flexible plastics
  • Universal putty

This diversity allows you to select the appropriate type depending on the repair; for example, fiberglass putty is ideal for filling deep dents or repairing polyester laminates, while flexible plastic putty is perfect for bumpers and moldings.

Benefits of vehicle fillers

Using quality fillers in automotive repair offers multiple advantages:

  • Ease of application and sanding: Modern fillers spread and work easily, minimizing intervention time and allowing for professional finishes. Quick and efficient sanding reduces effort and ensures surfaces are ready in less time.
  • Excellent filling power: A good filler covers dents, scratches, and holes without losing its consistency during drying, resulting in surfaces ready for painting and free of subsequent imperfections.
  • Optimal adhesion: Selecting the right filler ensures a perfect bond on any type of substrate, whether metal, aluminum, plastic, or fiberglass. This results in durable and secure repairs.
  • Elasticity and resistance: Plastic or low-density fillers provide flexibility and absorb vibrations and impacts. This prevents cracks and prolongs the good condition of the bodywork under everyday use.
  • Compatibility with paint systems: It is essential that the filler used in the repair is compatible with any paint system (water-based or solvent-based, with primer or filler), facilitating a homogeneous and durable finish.

Uses and added value in Detailing and Car Care

Beyond repairs, in the world of detailing and car care, fillers play a crucial role in the aesthetic restoration of vehicles. Pinturas Camp de Turia uses high-quality fillers in its services to ensure its clients achieve outstanding results, both in correcting imperfections and in preparing vehicles for specialized finishes and paints.

The professional use of putties contributes to:

  • Increase the value of the vehicle with an impeccable bodywork.
  • Protect the surface from future damage through effective leveling and sealing.
  • Improve the visual result and durability of the painting process.
  • Strengthen resistance to external factors (weather, heat, gasoline, oils).
