Fender bead repair Does anyone have experience using all or a portion of the front fender bead repair sold by Snyder's? Is the bead correct?

I'm sorry but I don't but I would think it would be easier to repair the bad section. I find it hard to believe that the entire edge would be bad but the rest of the fender good.

Re: Fender bead repair Find a junk fender and cut out a section.
If you were close to me I have some junk fenders cheap. |

Re: Fender bead repair Theirs is close but no cigar unless changed in the last few years
But small. Find the correct curvature off a donor fender and splice. It generally works better to splice in a small piece than try to deal with what's there especially if anyone has bugger with it before! |
Re: Fender bead repair What am I missing?
Why is it better to cut out a crack and weld in a larger patch that gets welded on three sides, instead of welding one line of a crack. I understand wanting a wire in the bead that goes beyond the crack, but that involves unrolling the edge and splicing in a short length of new wire. |

Now by placing a piece of "virgin" metal at that stress location will keep the crack from following any hardened metal weld. Like I said that is how I understand it. |
