Re: Patching above windshield ??

Okay thanks for info . I’ll remove roof skin and clean up or lightly blast skin underneath and see what I have to cut out . I have to replace some of the outer eye brow panel at the ends as well so will be good to see how the inside of that panel looks . I’ll look for a concave hammer

In this case, as you are welding a concave shape (both directions) any shrinking is going to pull the weld seam outward. You may be able to use a crowned body hammer and an air dolly to restore the weld to its proper location. If you’re lucky.
