Repair of Armor
Hi Big D, I would normally look to take repairing back to original weld lines, if it looks more practical to replace the whole panel in one plate, other wise if cut lines are suitable to weld up, just weld them up. Use the mild steel core mig wire, 0.9mm dia, good for 1/2" thick plate and CO2 shielding gas, and you won't go wrong on that US armor. Cheers Andrew.
