Re: Roof patch causing warp / oil canning
Got my new skin installed last week. About 50 spot welds on the front and sides, and 3M panel bond on the rear seam. Install and fitment went well.
I tested the panel bond on a couple pieces of scrap, about 1 square inch bonded together. I could not separate the pieces without risking an injury. I was able to get it started, and about half way through the separation stopped. After the small test patch I feel pretty confident in the quality of the bond on the rear seam.
Thanks to Lorne for some additional tips and tricks for using the panel bond. I have about 40-50 hours of work from start to finish in this whole project. Technically speaking, this was no harder than some rocker panels. I appreciate all the comments and feedback in this thread.
