[QUOTE="DarkstarCrashes, post: 139692, member: 3225"] I hit all the cracks with a stick of aluminum epoxy putty I had. Wish I had a second on hand. After filling all the cracks and a couple of the serious dents and letting it harden, I put Loctite Weld over it just for additional protection. I plan on riveting aluminum over these spots eventually, but I want to fish it tomorrow and this weekend. I'll be covering the bottom with multiple coats of Steelflex as well.
