Chit/mastic
Explanation:
E vorba de termenul englezesc filler/stopper/putty si chiar "bondo" am intalnit in slang.
In romaneste este "chit" sau "mastic" folosit la repararea, etansarea caroseriilor auto.
Exemple:
Applying body filler
“A metal rule can be used to help apply body filler (bondo) and saves time, sanding, and wastage. I'd claim to have prepared a whole car using just 1L of filler had I not had to go back for a second and then third tin.
Also techniques for using stopper (knifing putty) and final sanding before paint.”
