Best way to fill pin holes or trim/molding holes?
« on: August 13, 2006 - 08:34:12 AM »
Is it better to Mig the holes or let my bodyman fill them with Kitty hair or smething like that?

I would weld the molding holes.  If you have pin holes and go to weld them the surrounding metal may be to thin causing a larger hole to blow out. In this case replace the pin hole section with a metal patch.

thanks,that worked,I was wondering why i bought that dremel tool kit a while ago,glad i had it for grinding down the little weld i made,couldnt have done it correctly without it.I am not filling in all the trim holes since i want to use most of them,just a few,like the GC emblems ect.I prefer to fill the holes on emblems,buy new ones,cut the tabs off and use 3M 2 sided tape for my emblems
