thanks 7172 and I meant just like tips on how to keep the metal flush and smooth to look like the holes were never there.
 
I have used magnets to hold patch in place till I tacted it. then remove and finish welding. For small screw and bolt holes used a piece of brass on backside of work area.

just cut out a peice of metal just a little bigger than the hole and weld it to the inside... then just use a little kitty hair over it and start your body work!
