[QUOTE="muskyhunter1978, post: 510389, member: 34965"] As I'm scrubbing, removing the corrosion from the pits, I'm starting to rethink one of my original plans. The plan was to bond the new metal to the inside of the transom skin. But, after getting some of this cleaned up, the pitting is rather rough in spots. So much so that I'm thinking it might be best to prefill some of the pitting with epoxy and letting it cure, before I bond the new skin in place. However, I'm beginning to wonder if skinning the outside of the transom is a better option as its perfectly smooth, aside from a few holes. I feel like I would get a tighter more uniform bond to the outside. If I go the outside route, I could then seal up the pitting on the inside, then paint the entire thing in por 15. thoughts?
