hallboss 1 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 I am getting ready to duracoat an 1100 but I want to fill in the scrolling on the receiver. I thought of using fiberglass resin or epoxy but I think that would flake out. I think the best option other than welding it all up would be to use JB Weld. Any suggestions?

hallboss 1 Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 solder Forgive my ignorance, I don't do too much soldering other than the cheap stuff you buy at the hardware store. Are you referring to that solder or silver solder or some other kind? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmax4x4 68 Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 how deep is the scrolling? Duracoat makes Durafill for pits dings and scratches. Other then that stiff solder. Like leading for hotrods Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like leading for hotrods Now leading I can do. I called Houts and they said Dura Fil would not fill the scrolling on the 1100, which is about 1/16" deep.

If properly done it will be there for ever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
