Ithink if you read directions on some newer fillers they say for use over bare metal only . The one I use will stick to any metal. Oldays primer and bondo may have a hard time sticking so Chrysler came up with the epoxy thing In professional shops they dont use it any more they use metal to metal primer. I did not know people still used epoxy until I watched some utube stuff. It is a good adhesion promoter in the old days we used it on new parts and bumpers it would still work for that.

Professional RUST Repairer... HQ in MICHIGAN... that is job security!! It's heartbreaking how many late model trucks and cars rot here. : ( Question, and I know nothing about welding, but will water get in that lap joint? Will that be more prone to rust in the future than a butt joint? Why a lap joint over a butt joint on that patch panel? ( just curious, not second guessing a professional). Thank you for all you do and sharing amazing content and videos!

@LakesideAutobody

Жыл бұрын

Here's a good video explaining in better detail than I could explain here - kzread.info/dash/bejne/fH190dCDf7nYn5c.html All or most quality body shops use a combination of lap and butt depending on the area you are welding. Lap for areas where you can tap the seam down butt for more rigid areas like door jambs, rockers, edges, etc. I think lap lasts longer than butt actually - probably cause you can tap the seam down and the filler acts as a buffer between the seam and the finish. You really don't want a seam right under the finish - most likely the seam will end up showing later on.

Man I love this. I bought a mig welder to fix my van. What is meant by “tap” the seam? Are you hitting it with a hammer, or just filling with body filler?
