Getting ready to do my first MIG welding - repair of the driver's floor. Does it make any difference if I attach the patch from the bottom or from the top? (I'm thinking more about water accumulation

Water retention will depend mostly on how you weld, not where the patch is. If you set it on top, and weld it from the bottom, you're sealed from rain spray, but wet carpet would seep water under the

Note that lots of sheet metal folk now use Clecos (which are much like removable and reusable Pop-Rivets.) Definitely understand how to weld, though, and practice on lots of scrap sheet until you're

And I see now (on a second reading) that Nolan did say they use panel pins. That is one of the generic term for Clecos. Donald. [snip] [more snip]

Thanks. I presume "expensive panel pins" are generic Clecos, right? And would the entire perimeter on the underside necessarily be welded as well as the interior perimeter? I'll get some practice bef

I don't remember the proper name, but I figured you'd understand me using the phrase panel pins. I was hoping that's what Eastwood calls them in their catalogs. In any case, their like removable, reu

I just finished a couple of welding classes at our local vocational school after work. From what I've learned at school and from an Eastwood video on auto body welding, I would attach the patch from

Only the area covered by the repair panel is sprayed with the zinc spray (Cold Galvanizing Compound; they make a spray and a brush on application, available through Eastwood: www.eastwoodcompany.com
