Either Joel or Bob Hoover suggested Brushable Seam Sealer for filling the gaps between the new battery tray and the old body metal. So I finally got that far, and this suff is cool, although not cheap. The one-quart or so can cost $15.00 or so at Color-Rite, the local body and paint place. We used cheap acid brushes to apply it to both sides of the seams, and it sticks and appears to fill quite well. I generously sprayed primer and one coat of top-coat on first, so the sealer doesn't have to be the rust-barrier too. I'll top-coat over it and that's the end of painting. Its like grey peanut butter, with an intense tolene smell. Use in a well ventelated area, maybe with a mask too. The label on the can promises that it "holds brush marks like OEM finish" for those extra concours points. :) For my working-truck aspirations, I've been using the Rustoleum Antique White for VW off-white, and its got more yellow and less gray, but works well enough I think. Cheers! Bill
