You'll have to decide yourself , depending on the instance.

Thanks for the info. I had heard about Abatron but not other two.
The reply was curt, but there were no pic's. so it was kinda tough to elaborate. Abatron i use alot i love the stuff ,it's not cheap . But there is alot applications you can use it for . In a word versatile. West system i primarily use with wood dutch's it can be a little messy , but it has filletting and other capabilities . Advanced repair is also great stuff and in my opinion the more expensive of the three just for the "starter kit" is around 150.00 but is a great product spreads like peanut butter and has great expansion and contraction properties . Abatron and advanced repair technology are good for vertical scenarios, meaning if your under a soffit and you have to repair the crown or another component there of. They are your ticket. West system is primarily an adhesive, for high moisture instances........... good luck
I hask this question couple weeks ago about exterior door brick ledge. I found some PVC trim at Lowes cheaper that replacement wood trim
Advanced Repair Technology FlexTec HV should be at the head of that list, not the end. Much better product than Abatron IMHO.
