Subject:POR-15 and seams

Folks,

My 15 year-old son and I are starting our "restoration project"  " '84 Westy.  There's a pretty nasty case of seam rust below the untilities holes on driver's side.   Poking around the POR site - noticed they market a body filler paste. So ...

  Any thoughts on using the POR paste to fill the entire seam?  Site says the paste "remains flexible" so ... what about just filling the thing (after proper rust removal, neutalizer, etc) and making it a "soild" looking piece along the whole panel?   How much vibration gets centered here?  What's the purpose of the seam other than manfacturing?

The more I'm reading about the POR products, I'm thinking I'm just about done with fiberglass and Bondo!
