Gas tank fix

[john8504]

In a attempt to pull a dent, I have pulled holes out of the tank. Will jb weld and a good sand fix it?

JB weld hasn’t worked for me yet patching holes in the tank. It works good in place of bondo for leveling imperfections. You could solder those holes with soft solder then cover over with bondo or JB weld. Make sure to remove all flux after soldering.

Silver soldering and quickweld by jbweld and it worked for like a charm.

That looks really nice. I was going to suggest brasing if there wasn’t any soft solder joints that could be undone.
