Experienced Plug Welding Help Sought
 
2 Attachment(s)
Ive patched panels before, but on a rock jeep where I did not care so much about finish. This is my first 72 rocker replace. I am trying to get it so it can be finished with filler primer only. I just don't know how much leeway I have with the metal finish because of my experience level.

The left weld I ground a little deep. But on the third from left there is a tiny recess. It is not a hole but I can barely feel it. Is this something that filler primer will take care of or do I need to keep working this. I do not want to grind everything so thin.

Any experienced help appreciated.

Most repairs require filler. I know everyone wants everything metal finished but its near impossible to get away without any sort of filler.

If you are really close you can try glazing putty or a 2k poly.
