I have a small amount of damage on the front underside of my Chimaera (ran over a piece of wood in the road) what would be the best type of body filler to use ?

(Tried searching but PH search doesn't seem to work for me at the moment)

Fibre glass?
If you get no other suggestions I would speak to Julian if you need any advice.

Cheers Bob, yes it is the bodywork thats damaged, only no damage to the fibrglass just the gel coat is scuffed and scratched.
I want to do a DIY fill, sand and paint job. I'm familiar with doing this on tin-top cars but not on fibreglass ones, so in summary just trying find out which product to use,

U-POL Isopon P40 maybe or U-pol PLAST X ??

no idea on product..... but know it has to be filled rubbed down, and then redone some time latter due to the filler shrinking.
