Re: [MBZ] Metal Filler
I am trying to stay away from the need to mix, because I am not in the least skilled at mix or application before it all cures. I found Permatex Liquid Metal, which seems to be getting the job done.

Light, waterproof, can be shaped after it sets. Clean the aluminum really good first. I would use muriatic acid. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
