Does anyone have any ideas or opinions on the best way to change or
repair the fender beading without drilling out the factory spot welds &
associated hassles??
I have a bonnet that is in excellent shape except for some rust pitting
& flattening on the factory beading that after media blasting will be
too obvious and I really do not want to use any filler on the beading
due to fear of it popping off later.
I have not been able to come up with a good way of doing the repairs
other than separating the fenders and trying to realign them after
replacing the beading. Also in the interest of the previous posting
about paint formulas I had a PPG dealer set down and formulate PPG / DCC
acrylic urethane in Iris Blue to match the original color that was under
my license plate light. He weighed every part as he mixed so as to
retain the formula. A spray out matched perfectly. If anyone needs it
let me know.
Thanks
Leo
