Roberlo fillers-anyone here using this brand?

Maxifill is what they've been stocking for the local shops, this is what I tried and it seems like good stuff. It sands as good or better than any of the premium fillers I've used. I'd like to try their lighter fillers and glaze now. My Son has also been using their poly glaze for flexible parts and really likes the stuff. None of the techs I've talked to have seen any problems. The only gripe I hear is the red hardener doesn't show a great deal of color change when mixing as the filler is an orangy shade of yellow so make double sure it's mixed well before applying or use some blue hardener.
 
Roberlo has an entire line of body products, not sure how their primers and clears are but I see them at local jobbers.
 
They do not make their own filler, in Spain. I believe this is made by David and sons as a private label, if it is then it would be the same as the U-pol.
 
Since we're neighbours, Roberlo products are known (but not widespread) around here.
Do not have experience with their fillers. However, I've used their Kronox 1100 1:1 combined iso/moisture-cure clear coat. Good shine, but I found adhesion to substrate and solvent resistance to be poor.
To further confirm this, their TDS strongly advises the activation of base (which is expensive) for water-based colors.
I wonder if SPI products could be commercialized here. European regulations are different, but if these are satisfied I would certainly see a market for SPI products with custom/motorcycle/bicycle painters.

Roberlo filler is the best filler I have ever used, I got the thicker one (Silver Light), and the thinner one (Maxi Light)
The Maxi Light is like a spot putty it's so runny, great for final coating.
They do make a spot putty that's really good too.
They all sand real easy.
Their hardener I was given is blue, so it mixes pretty easy.
 
Thank you very much for the reply! It's usually expensive to ship chemicals in the mail from UK to Portugal, but if a 1 Liter (approx. 1 quart) of Universal Clear + hardener is under 80 € (approx. 94 USD) with shipping, I will order it right now to try it.

Were in United kingdom if that is close, I don't have a clue.
