Ok so welding and some grinding done now going to try (never used before) JB extreme heat metallic paste and sand it out smooth then to powder coat.image 247.jpg?VersionId=ppUil0SXWHPCWnI4Hl5Tu BfOqHj

My thoughts are to use this because of the oven heat during powder coat....

As a "body filler" I do have some experience doing body work for a friend on the side.

Not sure if this would be the right thing to do, any thoughts???

I am open to any input about the proper way to do any thing during this project.
