im planning on DIY'ing, shaving my side moldings and was wondering if i could use sheet metal and JB weld instead of arc welding, i tryed search but this topic did not show up, anyone know if jb weld is strong enough?

 

jb weld OWNZ

 

JB Weld is pretty strong stuff...my friend plans on doing the same exact thing. DIY shaved moldings hehe

 

are you planning on shaving the hole molding or just pluging the holes... jbweld... i wouldnt do it no way no how..

 

its for an integra, so just plugging up the holes.

 

You can use my dad's welder to weld the holes shut

 

haha what if i **** up my kaa

 

has anyone used jb weld.... anyone??!

 

we dont use arc welding in autobody, instead we use migwelders......arc welding will warp the **** out of your panels, or maybe even punch holes in it. JB weld??? Use it at your own risk

 

are mig welders farely easy to use? i have a little experience with arc welders.... and anyone know what the difference is exactly?

 

Arc welders are used to weld very thick metals, an example: metal structures for buildings.

Mig welders are Electric and are wire fed and are comonly used in the automotive industry. The ones we use in autobody, are combined with a shielding gas to make the welds "pure" and prevents oxidation during the welding process. Combinations of wire speed, tempeture settings, shielding gas settings, and welding techniques all determine how your weld is going to hold up and look.

Again, JB Weld??? Use that at your own risk. I'm about 85% sure that your bodywork will crack someday.

 

thanks for the advice, im steering further and further away from jb weld, but also on a budget.....

 

make sure you post up a how-to tutorial on here so we can all learn to do it too.

 

do it the right way first, pays off.

 

jb weld owns joooo ****!!

 

damn bellyville, hahahahha
