peter...i learned this method many years ago by an old time bodyman...grind it clean...heat it dull red...dip a clean rag in automatic trans fluid start re-heating imediately(very smokey)...rub the area completely with the rag hard and thouroughly...take the lead bar and tin the area...like soldering wires, get the lead to stick to the metal...now start heating(must keep metal hot) and filling what you are doing(hole,dent)...once you have enough melted lead in the area...dip your wood paddle in the tranny fluid and begin smoothing...keep it warm with the torch...now grind it smooth...this method stinks like hell...and very smokey...but it always works...some old ways can't be improved on !
