Evercoat® Lite Weight® OPTEX® 

Evercoat® Lite Weight® OPTEX® is a high-quality, smooth-spreading, lightweight body filler engineered for fast, efficient, and accurate repairs. Formulated with Evercoat’s patented OPTEX® Color-Changing Technology, this filler transitions from light pink to a light gray-green once mixed and cured—giving technicians a clear visual indicator that the repair is ready to sand. This eliminates guesswork, boosts efficiency, and ensures consistent timing from job to job.

Designed for excellent spreadability and a clog-free sanding experience, Lite Weight® OPTEX® reduces sandpaper loading, helping shops save time and materials. Its lightweight formula offers easy application, strong adhesion, and dependable performance across a wide range of substrates, including steel, aluminum, galvanized steel, SMC, and fiberglass. With fast set times and excellent sanding characteristics, it delivers reliable results for cosmetic repairs in professional collision repair environments.
