|  Best filler for crap welds.
What is the best filler to use for welds that have some gaps? It will either be painted or coated with bedliner. I did a search and came up with nothing. Thanks, Scott |

JB Weld works fairly well too. If you are talking for appearance not strength... |

I am going to attempt to build a ladder rack for my F150 scaler. The body probably wont see big flips off of high cliffs like my comp rig does... So it doesnt have to be WAAAAY strong... I am guessing for my first attempt at welding AND bending steel that I wont really keep it(the rack) for long anyways. Thanks for the ideas!! |

Get JB weld the stick kind. It's like silly puddy. Smear it around then sand it down when it hardens. Just don't have it sand blasted.
