Auto body repair & detailing/Filling out moulding clips holes

Expert: Mike Potter - 12/12/2007

Question
I just got a used door for my project truck 1969 Ford F100, but the door have holes from moulding clips, my truck don't use mouldings. What is the best way for me to fill those holes in order to prep for painting. I don't have mig welding equipment, I do have acetylene/oxygen.

Thanks

Jose

Answer
You can pound in around the holes and fill with a fiberglass filler or weld them with your torch. If you are a beginner with torch welding, don't do it. You will easily warp the metal with the torch. Fiber glass it, if you do it right, it will last.

Comment	Thanks, I was thinking almost like doing sheetrock, make an indentention and filled, but did not thought about fiber glass , that is good.
