Full details
Roberlo MAXILIGHT Plus is designed for professional body shops and serious DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable, easy-to-use filler for automotive restoration. Its primary benefit is a lightweight, exceptionally easy-to-sand formula that saves significant labor time while delivering a high-quality, durable finish on dents, rust spots, and holes. While it provides excellent adhesion and consistency for large repair projects, users should note that the large 3L container requires proper storage to prevent the product from hardening prematurely in the can.

FAQs
Can this be used on plastic bumpers?
This product is primarily designed for metal automotive body surfaces. For flexible plastic parts, a dedicated plastic filler is recommended.
Does it come with a hardener?
Yes, standard automotive body filler kits include the necessary hardener, but always verify your specific kit contents upon arrival.
How soon can I sand the filler after application?
Depending on ambient temperature, most applications are ready for sanding in 20 to 30 minutes.
Is this filler waterproof?
While it is durable, it is porous and must be covered with a high-quality primer and paint system to be fully protected from moisture.
What happens if I over-mix the hardener?
Over-mixing can cause the filler to 'bleed' through your topcoat paint later and significantly reduces your working time.
Troubleshooting
Filler remains tacky and does not cure
Usually caused by an incorrect mixing ratio or cold temperatures. Ensure you are using the correct amount of hardener and working in a space at least 20 degrees Celsius.
Pinholes appearing after sanding
Often caused by air trapped during application. Apply with firmer pressure using the spreader to force air out of the repair area.
Filler is pulling away from edges
Ensure the surface is properly scuffed and cleaned with wax/grease remover. Smooth, un-sanded metal does not provide sufficient adhesion.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal results with the Roberlo MAXILIGHT Plus, start by thoroughly cleaning the repair site with a grease remover to ensure no wax, oil, or rust remains. Sand the metal surface with 80-grit abrasive to create a mechanical anchor point.
Mixing is critical; ensure you follow the manufacturer's specified ratio for the hardener. Using too much hardener will reduce working time and may cause discoloration, while too little will result in a tacky, uncured finish. After use, seal the 3L container lid tightly to prevent solvent evaporation. Store the container in a temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight to preserve the chemical properties of the filler.
