And a little tip on shoo goo if you didn't know... keep your finger wet when putting on the body. It will go on smoother and won't stick your finger as easily. Once it starts sticking to your finger... switch fingers.
Another alternative to drywall or body mesh is to use Kevlar from a deployed air bag. It is strong and the best part is the local body shop gave the deployed air bag canister away for free. Just cut the bag off and throw the canister in the trash.
