JB WELD
Has any one use it to fill old screw holes in metal?
How much different is it , than Bondo
I have a steel trailer and I am wanting to fill two holes on the roof.
Will this work better than Bondo?
Thanks.
 
Its not flexible, bondo has some give.... Idea use some spouting silicone....
 
I was thinking an 1/8 hole wouldn't flex .
I was thinking instead of welding up the hole us JB Weld..
 
JB or bondo will both dry and crack then fall out. Drill screw holes to standard size, then use appropriate sized blind closed pop rivet , apply a dab of sealant rv type before inserting and backup washer on inside

Expansion and contraction on sheet metal.... Whatever man, I use jb for tons of stuff, its awesome because its machinable. I just wouldn't use it as a surface patch. I would think something flexible would last longer
 
Thanks
That's why we ask!
