U.S. Chemical & Plastics All-Metal 1-Quart aluminum-filled body filler — drillable, corrosion-resistant repair compound

U. S. Chemical & Plastics All-Metal is an aluminum-filled, drillable body filler designed for metal restoration and classic car repairs.

All-Metal (USC-14060) is a professional-grade, aluminum-filled repair compound formulated to mimic the density and finish of lead while providing modern corrosion resistance. Supplied as a 1-quart kit that includes the liquid hardener, this product bonds to steel, aluminum, and wood, accepts drilling and tapping, and serves as a leveling, rust-repair, and barrier coat for restoration projects. It’s intended for experienced technicians and hobbyists who need a durable, work-ready alternative to traditional lead-based methods.

How does All-Metal perform on rusty panels and spot welds?

All-Metal is formulated to resist rust and water while filling pits, seams, and areas around spot welds. Its aluminum content helps create a stable, corrosion-resistant surface that reduces the need for repeated applications.

• Aluminum-filled compound resists rust and moisture intrusion
• Adheres to clean metal and keyed surfaces for long-lasting repairs
• Works well over spot welds and as a finish or barrier coat

Can I shape, drill, or tap All-Metal after it cures?

Yes — once fully cured, All-Metal machines much like soft metal rather than brittle filler. It requires minimal sanding and can be drilled, tapped, or machined to accept threads and fasteners, making it ideal for structural and cosmetic restorations.

• Drillable and tappable after cure for secure fastener installation
• Minimal grinding or shaping compared with conventional fillers
• Mimics the look and feel of lead without lead hazards

What surfaces and preparation are required for best adhesion?

Surface prep is critical: remove loose rust, paint, oil, and contaminants before applying All-Metal. The compound bonds strongly to clean metal and properly prepared wood; roughening the surface improves mechanical bite and long-term durability.

• Strip to clean metal or sand to a keyed finish before application
• Remove oils, grease, and loose corrosion for optimal adhesion
• Apply recommended liquid reactor/hardener supplied with the kit

How does using All-Metal change the restoration workflow?

All-Metal eliminates the time-consuming steps needed when using multiple product layers by combining body-filler performance with metal-like machinability. Its properties allow you to fill, finish, and prepare mounting areas in fewer stages, speeding up project completion without sacrificing durability.

• Serves as a leveling compound, mender, and barrier coat in one
• Reduces need for repeated filler layers due to its stable fill
• Includes hardener so you can mix and apply immediately

Who is this for? U. S. Chemical & Plastics All-Metal (1-Quart, USC-14060) is aimed at restoration shops, classic car enthusiasts, metalworkers, and skilled DIYers who want a durable, lead-like filler that can be machined and tapped. If you repair sheet metal, restore vintage vehicles, fabricate panels, or need a corrosion-resistant filler that cuts and threads like metal, All-Metal provides a versatile solution to speed work and deliver professional results.
