The best way to weld body patch panels is to use a MIG welder with a thin wire and a shielding gas, such as argon and CO2, to minimize heat distortion. Start by fitting the patch panel properly and securing it with clamps or screws. Use a stitch-welding technique, making short welds and allowing the metal to cool between them to reduce warping. Finally, grind down any excess welds and apply a rust inhibitor before finishing with body filler and paint.
