Eastwood No Weld Panel Adhesive

[Goatnut]

I wanted to use this material to fill a hole in the roof of my wagon. The hole is about 3/4" Dia. from a previous owners CB antenna. I have welded patches all over my car but thought that because of the size and relative flatness of the area that a "NO weld" patch would be best. So, I bought a kit with the flush rivets and dimpler. Now I realize that the hole is too small to insert the dimpler. My question is weather or not this stuff is strong enough that I could get away with just the adhesive and no rivets? I thought that I could cut a piece that was 2 3/4" Dia so there would be a full inch of ahdesive and mating surface all the way around the hole. I could also "jack" some pressure against the patch panel from the interior and load some weight against it from the top side.

Well, how good is this stuff?

Thanks,
Scott

I've heard nothing but good about the no weld adhesive. They use it for 1/4 panel replacement and patch panels, so yes it should be more than adequate for your application. Let us know how it goes and how it is to work with (cure time etc)
