metal filler you can use when powdercoating
 

does anyone know if there is a metal filler you can use that would stand up to the heat of powdercoating and let the powder bond to it ??

i've used evercoat "metal to metal" i think is the name many times over the years on different bikes and cycle restos the powdercoat looked great and held up well with no issues

I have used All-Metal with decent luck on vintage bicycles I used to work on. Can't put it on very thick though or the powder won't stick well.

I have heard that JB Weld will work. I have no experience with it in a powdercoating context though.

I use good old JB Weld to do the rough filling. Then high build powder and wet sand to smooth the pits, then color powder and clear powder.
