I used it to do areas about 4" in diameter and didn't let it get hot enough to discolor the metal. Have to say it did a pretty decent job. At this point the lowest area now is about 1/16" but I'll still work it with a hammer and dolly beror the filler goes on. The straight edge lays pretty flat along the panel and the 3/16" gap I had in my last picture is gone!

I'll bet you are relieved about that! I figured you would try to come up with something to save it.... Glad it worked out for you.
