Re: [MBZ] Metal Filler

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

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.  Three 
wheels down, two to go.  Once it cures, I move on to the sanding and prep for 
filler/primer.

I have not done it, but I would think JBWeld would be a good
choice.  Light, waterproof, can be shaped after it sets.  Clean
the aluminum really good first.  I would use muriatic acid.

I am to the point of making repairs to the Bundts.  What sort of metal filler 
would be best?  Turns out I was not the first idiot to think a sawzall was a 
good tire removal tool.  There is some curb rash and other scuffing that might 
enjoy attention.  Much of the damage is pretty fine.  Could I get away with 
using glazing putty?
