So I have been working on my bay, trying to clean it up and shave it a bit. I'm welding shut some of the holes in the bay and I have been taking the seam sealer off and now I'm left with all these seams. What do you guys think I should do? Grind down the seams as much as I can and then weld the seams, and apply a thin layer of filler? Or should I just grind the seams and leave it at that? I'm not doing a complete shaved bay, just want a clean bay with no seam sealer. I hate how the sealer looks. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks ia

That would probably be the best method. grind out what you can and use filler.

Thanks for the help guys.
So u wouldn't need to weld the seams at all? Has anyone done this before?

If you want your bay to have cracks and paint peeling in a couple years, yes, use filler

If I used a filler, I would use evercoat metal glaze or USC icing. I have heard real good stuff from both, they def aren't your ordinary fillers.
