Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble

Hi Stampy - thanks for checking in. I do mig weld my patches, although I've seen threads where the guys used flux core for sheet metal patches. I've seen a LOT more though who say mig is the only way to go.

I have finished the patches for the cab finally, and I'm working on removing all the surface rust. This cab has been bare in Houston humidity for too long! There are so many edges on the bottom of the cab that they keep tearing the edges off sanding disks. These things below work pretty well. They get tore up also, but last longer - just wear a full face mask because there are a lot of flying hard plastic pieces flying off them! I'm still looking for a better solution short of re-blasting.
