JamesBowyer Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Posted February 7, 2012 Finally finished the back of the car. including boot, lid and back below the bumper. Next thing to tackle is that humongous, hole in the side, I'm thinking very slow amounts of bog, over a couple of days. ? Ill chuck a few more pics up. - any qu's just ask? Quote
Gizzys25 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Re the large hole. Bog on it's own will get a bit thick. Can you access the back of the hole? If so fiberglass the hole from behind then a thin layer of bog at the front. Or rivet a steel section in behind an skim the top. If Riveting counter sink the holes and punch in a bit so the rivets are below the panel level. Both will give a beter finish than bog alone. I need to do the same on an even lager hole in my rear quarter. Regards Dean. Quote
JamesBowyer Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 Thanks gizzy, mmmmm, the problem is that i can't get to the back of the hole as it is in the rocker panel. :/ I'm just gonna have to bog ,... Quote
Gizzys25 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 A cleverly cut sheet of metal A hole in the middle and a peice of wire to hold it while you attach and access problem solved. The hole looks wider than long so you should get it in from the front. Quote
Gizzys25 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Forgot to add. If drilling in from with it behind seams to hard Pre drill with on top. Or use some bog to glue it in. Quote
JamesBowyer Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 thanks gizzy, i will try something like the metal and see how it turns out. Quote
