Rob Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 In the past I've see a type of aluminum alloy solder for repairing pot metal emblems, and bezels, but cannot locate a vendor. I have several of the hood scripts for "B" models that are broken and would like to repair them, as opposed to replacement.Any help or direction is appreciated.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

B42Art Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 http://www.muggyweld.com/potmetal.html Rob, check out this web site. They sell the aluminum scratch rod you are talking about only better. Their rod melts at half the melting point as the standard repair rod. 350 degrees as opposed to 700 degrees. We all know what happens to pot metal when you put a torch to it . Eastwood also sells the regular aluminum scratch rod but I only see it in the catalog not online. Hope this helps.
