I cut out a section of the inner door that had significant pitting and pin holes. The outer skin and lip look good with the exception of a dime sized area with pin holes. I welded up the pin holes. Would like to use a POR 15 or something similar to coat the inside of the skin before installing the inner patch. Will this hold up? Please advise. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 166 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 166 | I'm no expert but I'd say yes, should be fine. I brushed on epoxy primer nice and thick on the inside of mine.

Shined a light and could see some tiny holes. Also, raising that pinched lip is a bugger. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2011 Posts: 785 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2011 Posts: 785 | | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 1,718 Moderator: 60-66 Trucks; North Eastern Bolters | | Moderator: 60-66 Trucks; North Eastern Bolters Joined: May 2007 Posts: 1,718 | Speaking of metal repair and southern md. Maybe I should come by for a consultation. And maybe I should bring by my tailgate (62 C-10)? California MD.
