1970 Duster project in Sweden
Yep, its a fair bit of work, but perfect little job to mess with during the winter. Plus a thin skim coat of polyester body filler can be used over the epoxied areas to smooth it better before priming. Not sure if you can buy JB weld epoxy in Sweden or not, or if there is a different suitable metalized epoxy available to you that you can use. I have an epoxy i use that is aluminum based called Araldite AVHV 1258. This stuff is used at my job. I take home the out of date tubes of this stuff and use it on my projects.
Funny thing is the Araldite 1258 was primarily used on wing flap attach fittings on the old SAAB 340B airliners we used to work on at my job. I still believe that those were the best aircraft i ever worked on. I actually miss them a lot. Also the SAAB JAS Gripen is a bad *** fighter plane. We used to do a lot of stuff back and forth with SAAB aerospace division in Linkoping. How close are you to there?
