body work: lead vs bondo

[DYMO]

pros and cons of using either to fix dents or holes?

im hearing mixed things about both... like lead is suppose to be superior or something

lead is harder to work with and you need to know how to do it.
bondo is easier and doesn't require too much skills.
finishing both is a different story
lead is not for beginners.

Do you think you can still get lead work done? Lead is a very restricted item now. You can't even buy lead solder, and all electronic components must be RoHS certified as lead-free. I don't think you will find lead body work being done in Canada.
