[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 485167, member: 13702"] I'm not re-reading 2 pages worth of discussion to find a detail - if the pods are filled with foam you won't want to use the aluminum welding rods as the aluminum all around the patch site will heat up and foul up the foam. I wouldn't use them anyway as the aluminum has to be heated to the point that it will warp and deform before the rod will bond to it, so it won't be a neat flat surface when you're done. [/QUOTE]
