How are you fixing around the windshield? Are you cutting a hole and welding in a patch?

Yes a proper weld based repair. I would really like to do a perfect "metal finish" repair.

Basiacally its forming a patch panel and eeither hammer welding or mig welding it in so clean that once its done you don't need filler. Look up david gardiner on utube. I am not that good but I can dream
