On a serious note this stuff was on the go when I was still working in body shops and it's amazing. We off course were somewhat sceptical but that went out the window when we started to use it. IMHO its stronger the plug welding etc. Using this gear would mean you'd only need a run of weld at the joint of the quarter panel to the sill and roof section but we used to cheat on that aswell :roll: it is easy to put a full quarter etc on without any welding at all with this stuff.

We use one of the other adhesives in the range at work for sticking on composite panels. Does the job!

I don't understand what's funny? This stuff and others like it are the progression of bodyshop technologies and are as good and usually better than welding. More and more car manufacturers are using it.

I've used it alot and it works. Yes repair sections can and do get bonded on. If you joggle the edge its easy to do.
