    like glen said if no big holes fiber glass resin with cloth or mat works very good fixed many floors this way as well with fiber gel with cloth or mat. if you not welding the steel patch in or using pop rivets/screws to hold fit up then glass will have a better fit up has the glass will lay flat were fixing the metal patch down may be very hard if you do not use some screws or poprivets to hold it down to help hold fit up so why stop ?at that point why wast good money on panle bond ? heavy duty seam sealer and blind pop riverts can do a ok repair and when done you can hold a doly over the head and get someone from the other side to flatten the end of the rivets some what if you do not like the end not flush. be the key here is to use the rivet with a short reach
