quote Buccaneer:
Anyone ever “bondo” just where the decal
goes for a nice flat surface for the decal,
and polish the visible aluminum areas?

You have done really well with what you
had to start with. I suspect you have a
ton of time in it to get where you are
now. Bet you have learned a lot. I’m
guessing your success will motivate you
to try another. The more of them you
do the more you learn and the better
the result. You have to enjoy doing it
though because it takes a lot of time.
If your decal is one piece your likely
going to have trouble on the corners
as the surfaces is now curved so you
might try to see if you can get it flatter.
This tank had a real nice top so I got
the sides as flat as I could. Then I
fill and painted them.
A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
