Re: Idea for plugging holes for side trim

Duct tape backing and Bondo? LOL, just messing with you.

I have heard of guys taking a piece of thick flat copper, holding it tight against the backside of the hole and then welding the hole up. The weld doesn't stick to the copper and the copper helps to keep the hole from blowing out while you're welding. Ive never tried it myself but for the cost of a small piece of copper (maybe electrical buss bar), I'd be willing to try it.
