I press in a special filler (I use evercoat metal 2 metal) in the seam to seal any pinholes etc then overlay with poyester glazing filler to blend any minor weld seam rippling.



Gotcha. I have a panel to try out, hence the question. Is the solid thing the way to go, or can a fella call it close enough with what you have shown so far?
I can say, I have never learned so much about car body work as I have from your threads.
Thanks again.
