Today I put bondo on the my car because we took the rust spot out and filled it. How long will the bondo stay there. I use the car on a daily basis. I live in Nebraska and the weather is unpredictable. Snow, rain, or just normal. How long will the bondo hold?

ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!
Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956
Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.
The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Fairly sure it won't degrade. If you didn't put it in correctly, it will fall out when you hit a bump.
I'm interested in other responses to this. I'll be fixing my quarter panels within the month using Bondo and want to see what it'll do.MRT

30.0 MPG, AC on, aggressively driving around 90.
27.5 MPG, no AC, cruising at 90 with occasional gridlock. 40 degrees Fahrenheit
Lots of DIY videos specifically for our car
Get some awesome wipers! <-- It's a DIY

ive had bondo last me a long time as long as you dont use a shit ton of it in one spot. You have to weld or rivet a piece of metal and just use the bondo to smooth it out.

you need to cut all that rust out and get creative with some sheetmetal

All depends really. In an area like the quarter panel where you repaired, it's prone to collecting moisture.
I can see within a few months, or by next spring, it may have the potential to crack.
I've seen many many times, where I car has bondo patches on the body and literally huge chunks of the bondo have fallen off.
Bondo is a repair aid, not a repair kit.
