    just a tip! when ever welding a plate or metal on metal, make sure to clean/prep and paint the under surface with a weld through primer , that bare metal that's now exposed under the metal is prone to potential rusting even if fully welded, its good practice! other then that, its looking good!

    • @RoamLyfe

      @sweetrider34 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I would, sikkaflex will get into all the weld crevices to help seal it the best it can, just make sure you apply and press it in over the welds
