body work!

[winky]

started doing body work about a year ago at the dealership, who would have guessed that would happen? lol. anyways i ended up having a pretty good knack for fixing ripped bumpers with my butane soldering iron. just thought i would post some pics and see what yall thought and maybe get some constructive criticism from fellow collision techs

rip "welded" up on front and back


wiped some putty coat, blocked it then primed and blocked.


ready for pick up



sorry my pictures aren't crystal clear my phone has been acting up

Looks good. I have fixed a few over the years. There are a few good products out there that work well without a torch too.

what other kind of products are there? the way i was taught was to drill a hole at each end of the tear/ crack to prevent it from spreading and then drill  holes on both sides of the rip, then apply TPO or panel bond and add reinforcement sheets on the back side.
