I want to use this product to glue some sheet metal panels over sheet metal to cover rusted holes Will it work ok joining sheet metal panels?

If the new metal was roughened on the inside so there was a real textured surface to grab it may work ok but any flex or stress will likely cause de-lamination, if you can use rivets also it should work fine.

I have used this product on various projects. To get the best results, you should remove any excess material (loose and flaking rust, peeling paint, etc.). You can just apply it to any rusty spot and help interrupt the rust cycle. If you have too much material over the base/core rusty metal, it may not react to halt the on going rusting action.

I can only suggest testing it on some scrap wires soldered together. I used it to repair a cracked, leaking plastic antenna mount, so it bonds well to metal and plastic, and might use acetic acid like silicone caulk does to cure.

i have not used it on silicone sheet's and because it is a metal it's possible that it may damage the surface.

Glad to see that you got a few other answers that may be more helpful to you. I use this for crafting and it's amazing...but I really use it to bond metal to metal. For that, it's the best glue I've used....doesn't try out and really bonds.

Interesting question. I used it to stop rust only on some parts I intended to paint. Since it chemically bonds to the metal if your intent is to eventually rechrome or repaint the part it may interfere with the process and require completely sanding it off. If parts are pitted this could be a real problem. Also when it dries it turns black which cosmetically would not be very attractive

Yes, this will work if you can get the edges to stay together while the glue sets. VLP works much like model glue works, it dissolves the edges to make a permanent, weld type bond. If the edges are not going to touch easily, I would recommend using the Anything Foam product, also by Plasti-Dip, to fill in the gap.

In theory yes, but the surface would need to be very well prepped with SS wire brush, wiped well with acetone, and left horizontal for best fill/level until cured. It bonds very well to aluminum that has been heavily scuffed/roughed with SS wire brush...

I used it to weld a plexiglass panel to a vinyl convertible top after the glass panel broke. It worked perfectly! Just prep the panel with the primer and be prepared to hold it in place for about 30 minutes till the epoxy sets up. Oh yeh,,, and WEAR RUBBER GLOVES, THIS STUFF IS MESSY!!!

As long as the metal parts are not aluminum it will work. Do not use if there is any chance of it coming in contact with aluminum as it will corrode it.

while this spray is excellent for craft work, I doubt this would work for your purposes. BUT, I bought a spray adhesive called Loc-tite (as I remember) at Joann's when my 3-M spray ran out. It was clearly for industrial purposes, not for bonding paper. I had to return it for my purposes, but it might work for yours.

Although I've never tried it on metal, it should work fine because this wipe-on poly is oil-based and not water-based. A water-based wipe-on poly will cause the metal to rust, but an oil-based one shouldn't.

Yes, it converts rusted metal into a printable surface. Therefore you can put what ever you want over it.

No, regretfully as good as it is for Wood, paper or fabric, this won't work for metal. In that case I would suggest a cyanoacrylate kind adhesive.

I didn't use this glue for that in particular, but I used it to glue together a broken piece of a plastic phone case and it bonded the broken part back together. I would think it would be ideal for that!

I wouldn't recommend it for that. It's rather thick and stringy, I would try a spray adhesive, it would go on easily and it does have a good hold. Elmers has one, it's called craft bond.

I used it with a Weller soldering gun to repair a leak in a stainless steel pan. It worked very well. The type of iron/gun that you need will depend on what you are soldering since you need to raise the temperature of the item to the melting temp, but it should work fine.
