  1. You weld in a peice of sheet metal trimmed to fit the spot where the handle was after you remove it all.

    3M does make a panel bond for use in place of welding in certain situations, but welding is better. I have seen the 3M used for this before, and it was holding up but it had only been a few months and I do not know how they are now.

    The door gets alot of use and bumping into. So you need it to be solid so it doesn't crack or show thru.

    If welded correctly, you use little body filler to level it out.

    As for 'glassing it over.....negative. See above for reasoning.

    The fiberglass will adhear to the metal for a short time, then it will eventually give and start cracking.

    For the paint fix....... that depends on the paint that is currently there. Most paints can be feathered in. I would recommend clearing the whole door though.

    thanks alot my man, great info!
