[QUOTE="lckstckn2smknbrls, post: 411969, member: 850"] Yes JB weld can be sanded. What I do is take a counter sink bit and bevel the holes on the inside and outside of the hull. For the small holes I put some masking tape on the inside of the hull then apply the JB weld into the hole from the outside and cover with masking tape. On the bigger holes I make a backer of thin aluminum bigger than the hole. I back butter the backer and tape it over the hole on the inside of the hull. Then fill the hole from the outside and cover with masking tape. I customized a pair of 2 screw wood clamps the apply pressure to the backer. JB weld putty is easier to use but not as strong. The Drain tubes are Splash well drain tubes. [/QUOTE]
