Default Holes in SS trim

Unfortunately the previous owner fastened some of the stainless steel trim with screws. Anyone have experience with repairing the holes?

if you have a tig torch you could weld them also could be done with a mig using ss wire and correct gas sand and polish

I have fixed them using my Cobra torch and stainless rod.

The metal so thin I would be afraid of warpage or burn through if I used a torch. I'll have to find some scrap pieces to practice on. I don't have a tig outfit but I could get some stainless wire for my mig welder.
