1-Crew Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 OT, For small stuff like you are describing, use the Bondo but before you do, get everything as clean as you can then treat it with phosphoric acid (Ospho, Navel Jelly, metal prep, etc.). The phosphoric acid will convert any remaining rust (iron oxide) to iron phosphate which is a stronger chemical bond than rust and will keep it from rusting out from under your bondo..
