Yes, good stuff :thumbs_up_1: I used construction foam but now prefer dense styrophore. Both of them are vulnerable to lacquer thinner though (contained also in automotive primer in spray can) so it ate my styrophore (and foam) :mad_1: before I learned how to protect it. How you treat your foam after sanding before filling and painting? What filler do you use?
