[alex_borges_br]

[alex_borges_br]

tried my best to level everything

 

[alex_borges_br]

 

[alex_borges_br]

well, still have to weld a piece of metal.. clean everything and paint.
I think it will work

 

[momoparman]

Just fine. Spray some primer on it then undercoat it. Good to go!

 

[alex_borges_br]

subframe rear end finished

Now I will follow your advice.. primer + undercoat.
did my best.

Next steps.. weld cracks on A-colum

 

[momoparman]

[alex_borges_br]

hi guys,

Looks like you have a nasty head cold......bless you.

 

[alex_borges_br]

"nasty head cold"
is this a good thing or bad thing? (recall that, sometimes, English phrases does not have the same sense in Portugues)

Here it's a bad thing. It's a slang term for a sinus infection, which cause nasty amounts of yellow-greenish mucous to run from your nose. Looks a lot like the seam sealer you used. My attempts at humor are getting lost in translation.

 

[needsaresto]

Lol,in english slang terms,that would be lots of boogers!

NOW everything makes sense! lol

 

[alex_borges_br]

could get for free

 

[momoparman]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I have three of those.....they grew up some but they still leave a mess everywhere they go.

 

[alex_borges_br]

my daughter is already 16.
she´s also messing everywhere, in a different way

 

[alex_borges_br]

Did not work this week.
I came back from a symposium and had a lot of accumulated work on university.

I moved my car once again on parking garage. Now I have to weld the remaing cracks.
The problem is that I have to weld take an extra precaution to not damage the paint (just the real necessary).

 

[alex_borges_br]

Over over over protecting everything to avoid weld sparks.

both sides are ok now.

 

[needsaresto]

You really can't overprotect from welding sparks! Wet blankets help,as do special foil wraps.

 

[alex_borges_br]

I used some high dense cardboard plates, wet blankets (not really blankets... some pieces of fabric) and rubber blanket

 

[alex_borges_br]

Passenger side (focus on lower crack)
not really a crack (I think).
Just the paint or body filler cracked (about 1/4" width).
Upper crack is body filler in excess.
