Looks good Nick! I hate rust jobs. 😡
Don’t forget the pics of it in paint and finished!
That looks like a good “butcher” job with a sharp knife. I am probably on of the few people who enjoy rust work (actually I just like to weld). That’s going to come out sweet, I feel for you discomfort about the rust as I am the same way about taking out lights, just don’t like it, haha. Would love to see the epoxy (if you use epoxy on bare metal), filler, prime, paint and clear picks as well. Thanks for sharing, you pros make my day.
Nice patch Nick.
I usually run a mile from that kind of thing. I hate rust jobs too!
I agree. Real nice looking patch there nick. I like seeing your work. it’s nice and clean
Nice work!
I’m confused, where’s the fiberglass matting…or aluminum tape and bondo? :p
Looks like a real nice clean fix! :cheers

Looks good Nick

No i did not Ryan, i really dont do that much painting theses day’s. maybe 2 or 3 small jobs per month days.
I did do all the panel work on it as one of my panel guys was on holiday last week.
And the painter is off for three days this week, so i will probably do some painting this week :cheer:
