Nah no such thing. There's high build primer, which can be called filler primer. You used to get spray filler in russia apparently, back in the twenties. You could spray it up to 3 inches deep :P Was used to cover welds apparently... It would seem Russians can't weld. haha.

Yes there is filler. There is also spray putty which is basically the same thing. Thick enough that you can dry sand it.

I stand corrected! didn't know anyone that was available or anyone used it anymore! we just skim with top stop, seems a much easier option. But each to thier own I guess! :P

We only use the spray filler (brushed or with a small roller) on BIG repairs (side of transits etc) on all other we also use "top stop gold" , wonderfull stuff does not shrink or sink like the old stopper (remember sinkage !)
