    I haven't done any lead work since the 80's. Glad to see you passing on that old but good tech Gill.

    I have a couple of belt line pins holes. I can access back side totally to clean up the corrosion issue. This will work. Best solution yet. First time viewer to boot!

    Outstanding. I think you're a natural teacher. I am definitely gonna add this method to my bag of tricks. This video makes me confident that I can do it too.
  • Thanks a lot Gill. My 70s Challenger has holes someone drilled in and this repair is perfect. I have been grinding out ALL BONDO and going to bare metal in all the flawed and damaged areas.

    Thank you Gill, I will use this method fixing all the pin holes on vintage Harley Davidson gas tank. Great video!
  • Excellent job! Would love to try this method. Not sure I can get lot on Canada but will sure look into it! Old school was always the best fix! Thanks for sharing!!

    I need to repair some small screw holes and a few Mig Welding seams on a car I'm working on. Never used lead before and watched a few YT videos on the technique. Yours is the best one and was very helpful to me. The result you got here was amazing. I hope mine looks as good as yours. Thank you

    Excellent video, I've never thought of using lead to repair holes. I'm going to try this myself. Thank you.
  • Awesome!  Have exactly the same holes that I need filling.  Most shops want to weld in a patch for a few hundred bucks.  Glad I found this video.  Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Gill. I have a tricky job near the boot (trunk) of my 1993 Cavalier, and I had forgotten about body solder. You've made my day! Cheers, John.

    That is a very good repair. This is the first time I saw this type of work. Very impressive. Thank you for your video.

    Great video! Helped me out a lot. I'm ot a body guy and needed a fix for a few tiny rust holes. Thanks!!!!!!
  • @Oldbmwr100rs
    Great tutorial on leading, the time I tried I was obviously using too much heat as it looked like all you used was just enough to get a good fast melt on the lead before paddling it into the holes and flattening it. If I ever get the chance to do that again, I'll remember this!
  • thanks for making this video - i need to do this on my vanagon window. never done it before, but this video is a great 'how to' that gives me some confidence to give it a go!!
