[QUOTE="Tigerhunter, post: 250893, member: 5791"] I just got similar stuff from harbor freight to fill in some holes from bolts that I removed. As said previously, there is a lot of grinding involved to clean up the area it was applied. Since I am going to be using steelflex I have decided to just fill the holes with rivets. The area I heated up with the torch changed shape and raised up some. I am not sure if it was too thin there or what but it made me think twice about doing it all over my boat since I have a lot of holes to fill in. However I will try it for the 1/8" angle and tube I will be using for framing and see how that goes. [/QUOTE]
