Re: PO has me PO'd

Just hope it's not all over my hands

On another note don't like the way this NOS trim is lining up. Rather not screw up nice trim I'll look for some beater 72 trim, I can still do the 2 tone paint

Re: PO has me PO'd

That looks pretty good
Time for some zip screws
Cut some of the bolt in flange back to get a better fit to the patch panel

Re: PO has me PO'd

Lesson learned contain all the tools needed for a particular project in a box when you get back to it you

Looking good Jim. Are you going to use the step tool for the panel fitment before adhesive? I had my panels line up better after that.

I had thought of that but my crimp er has straight jaws and worried I would get some uncontrollable warpage

I could build new jaws if I could get the tool apart dang

Appears to be for "trans spark control." Never heard of it.

Re: PO has me PO'd

I would stick to the panel bond for gluing 2 pieces together.

Then switch to the tiger hair for filling in the low spots.

I am going to guess less then favorable results filling in the bolt holes. Probably best to glue small patches underneath and tiger hair over top.

Re: PO has me PO'd

You can tool the panel bond out with a body filler squeegee. Just like you would with glazing putty. That should reduce the amount of sanding and reapplying you need to do. Depending on ambient temps it can definitely feel thicker/stickier than glazing putty. But, it still spreads out fairly well.

If you want to fill those screw holes with it. Chamfer both sides of the holes you want to fill. And clean the the surrounding area to bare metal with a 36 grit disk. Just like when you're bonding two body panels together. Then fill the holes and spread a thin skim coat of the panel bond over the top. If you do any finish sanding afterwards. There should still be a skim coat of panel bond surrounding the holes. I would not do this for any exterior body panels.

I should have thought of the squeegee but I wasn’t thinking and in a hurry. So, today we’ll see what happens

Are you saying not to use this product to hang body panels, because that was my main purpose to try it out

Re: PO has me PO'd

No, it's made for hanging ( mostly non structural ) body panels. Gluing some pinch seams together in place of spot welding.

But, it shouldn't be used like a filler or have an exposed Seam in the middle of a exterior painted panel. Like if it was used to fill the roof to B pillar lead seam on a car. Or like a partial lower quarter panel replacement that was flanged. If the panels were panel bonded at the flange and the seam was filled in with panel bond. Then just sanded flat, epoxied, 2k surfacer, blocked, sealed, top coated, cleared. That " exposed " panel bond Seam has a tendency to " shadow " through the primer/top coats.

Thanks for checking on me

I just ran out of money to finish the truck

I may even sell my speed minder, tach, 60pound oil gauge cluster, tilt column to finance the project, but I hope it doesn’t come to that……

Tags inspection, insurance
