How exactly do you smooth your bumpers or is it better to take it to a pro??

Well the so called recommendation is to have the plastic welded rather than filler > as filler in time will start to sink but as you know filler is also known to crack.
I have seen someone tryout expandable foam, smoothed it down and thro it around the garden for a day n seemed quite successful but he sold it on ebay for some strange reason.
He didnt really explain why so i would go pro

When I did my front i Used hot glue to fill major holes, but you have to be careful as its soft and hence you cant use a lot
I did mine over like 2 months as I couldnt be arsed some weekends which meant each layer of filler had ages to dry
Hasnt sank yet
Did crack tho
