After insuring that the lenses fit perfectly and snug and the welds were strong - a small amount of 2part Apoxie putty was all that was needed to smooth and finish the welded joints.

A quick 400 grit sanding and scuffing,light coat of primer and glazing putty to fill/feather any defects - The frames were ready for another final light coat of primer and final sanding before paint.

I reformed affected sills with Apoxie sculpting medium. Although, I would have preferred to use aluminum fortified epoxy (JB weld would work too). Apoxie Sculpt is impervious and cures rock hard. It is by far my favorite and most versatile product in my fabrication arsenal.

All that was needed to snug it in place - was a little bit of Apoxie putty. Side note: In lieu of Apoxie, you can substitute with 5min JB weld, or *hot glue (*as long as you have the wiring connected to a relay*).
