Thread: Sheet Metal Shrinking Disc

Tweet

Pat i did mean hammer but the word pick meant just a small area . I know a pick would be allmost like driving it out with a screw driver and hammer . HHMM i do remember doing something like that 35 yrs ago LOL and i do remember it look bad then . I have never used a slapping file and would like a class . I came from body shops that weren't restoring but production repair shops who only looked at the bottom line ..

i did work at production shops to but it was faster for me to metal finsh then use filler

Denny im getting a good picture of that in my head . I"ve seen some great sheet metal work since i've gotten deeper in this hobby . That is why i would like to try and save this metal with out filler just to do it i guess . Couple pics of damage on fender .

Pat shops i managed was even before the stud gun which i think is another great tool . Seen many a hole with screw in it pulling dents and metal back to somewhat of a shape.


Denny you had me busting with the pointy things and yes previous went to town on it .

well i was leading and bumping steel back in the mild 70s i have used washer machines with a hook

Denny and Pat i will be giving it a whirl here this summer. I hope to improve my metal work 10 fold and be able to just fill primer this fender worst thing on the car . I have a slight crease about 6 inches long in the quarter also and this metal is so thick .
