surfacer
One smoothing materials
A surfacer is a tool, machine, or substance used to create or prepare a smooth surface.
In woodworking and metalworking, a surfacer planes or grinds material flat.
In auto body work and painting, surfacer is a primer or filler applied before the finish coat to smooth imperfections: Apply two coats of surfacer before sanding.
In video games, particularly first-person shooters, a surfacer is a player who exploits physics glitches to slide along surfaces at high speeds.
