On metal that was too thin to heat' I've had to use a 2 part fast drying panel adhesive and a strip of metal from a scrap panel glued to the backside to stiffen it up to keep from canning.
I also agree with Bryan Clark except I prefer to used a sheet metal angle perhaps .050-.063 thknss x 1” wide x equivalent span of oil can diameter (for the length) x .25” vertical leg. This is usually available at most metal supply stores. Bond this sheet metal angle to the inboard side of the oil can using JB Weld and attach with 3M Blue masking tape overnight. Once the JB Weld cures, remove the masking tape.
Airframe & Powerplant Mechanics (FAA) are taught this repair for oil can conditions on aircraft except the primary difference is rivets are used instead of JB Weld.
Chased one a few months agoe on a Toyota. Took six times, half way down the door in the middle. Settled for a skin. I do shrink a lot of metal. This new stuff is getting harder and harder to play with. What about this aluminum, I have yet to srtaighten large panels. It is all replace.I have done a few door skins, yet I have not replaced quarter panels on a Epidtion, per, say.Done lots of bed sides on the new Ford junk Thanks for showing the commen person what we do! Keep at it, sir!
Thanks for checking it out Bill. I've often had to chase them down too but eventually it ends. It can be frustrating for sure but for real - it's never failed me. I have not run into a large damaged aluminum panel yet but I imagine it would be similar. We'll see - should make a cool video though. Feel free to tell me some of the good stories you have from jobs at work - I've got a few fails that I'll always remember for sure :)
That's a great technique to fix it and no more popping panel. Take care
Thanks for watching RG - have a great weekend :)
Excellent demo. I had to do some of this about a month ago on a new Mini that someone rolled onto its side as a prank. I spent an hour with a torch, a bucket of cold water and some rags. What a mess that thing was.
I meant to try one of the pads that came with my induction heater but forgot.
Have a great weekend!
Honestly Bruce - when I figured this out it was a real game changer. I no longer feared a serious dent - everything could be fixed quickly and efficiently :)
Great technique Jerry !! I have had this issue before, great demo.
Thanks for watching PSG. Hope all is well :)
Jerry you make that look so simple. Experience is key here.
I appreciate the kind words IJ - thanks :)
Good stuff Bud!! We gotta get you a bottle of Mapp Gas!! Use that Propane for a lil' BBQ Grill and we'll Burgers for lunch!!☻
What I really need is one of those little oxy ace kits in the red plastic carrier. Just haven't broke down and purchased one yet :)
Last time I researched that, there is only 150 degree difference in heat between map gas and butane
I noticed an oil can situation after butt welding a section of lower quarter on an Acura Integra. This was after grinding down the heads of the welds and knocking the seem down with hammer and dolly. But much to my amazement, the oil can went away after grinding off the extra paint along the seam in prep for fiberglass filler. After this been thinking about investing in a shrinking wheel, would like to see you try to use one in a future video. Thanks for another great video Jerry, have a great weekend.
I'll do that - thanks for the suggestion Paul - have a great weekend :)
What a great video Jerry and with the Hammer 🔨 you gave me I can do the job now thanks my teacher you are the best
Thanks 👍 Did you happen to get the email with the correct hammer handle for that broken one. You could probably get away with gluing it too. Have a great week - didn't get the title yet - hopefully this week :)
@LakesideAutobody yes I did Jerry and thanks you forgot to sign the hammer for me
Great work Jerry have an awesome weekend!
Thanks 👍 You too MN.
Cant thank you enough Jerry, have a great weekend
You're welcome GM - thanks for always checking out the latest video :) You have a good weekend too my friend 👍
Thanks so much for sharing that with us, looking forward to your next video
Thanks for watching every week Courtney - have a good weekend :)
have a great week end
You too Old Biker 😊
Thanks for the video, excellent demo.
Glad you liked it - thanks for watching :)
Great little video nice job keep up the good work
Thanks Brad - have a good weekend :)
Do you have to be concerned about insulation or flammables inside the door?
Sometimes... That's why (I should have mentioned) you should have a hole that you can look through or blow air through if you notice smoke, lingering heat, etc. Usually there's always a small hole or something you can look through and blow air to snuff anything out :)
Great video Jerry! your channel should be much bigger than what it is, it is so much great information on your channel!
autobodytrainingsolutions as well king
I appreciate that UPK. Yours too - you really are one of the best painters on YT. I think there's a limit when it comes to auto body channels - I don't get a lot of female viewers - maybe like 2%. That's 1/2 the population not even thinking about watching a video. Maybe if I was real buff and tan or something 💪
@@LakesideAutobody 😂 you would think the information is enough but you really have to have some type of gimmick to grow on this platform
@@UndergroundPaintKing @LakesideAutobody exactly,you would think people would want to learn and grow, but no, most just want to be entertained

You're welcome Rod - have a good weekend :)
great vid man
Thanks :)
I never used heat like that, great info sir, have a great weekend
Thanks for watching YeaYea. You have a good weekend too my friend :)
@@LakesideAutobody yessir its blazing hot in texas
@@yeayeasautoadventures Wow!! it's miserable all the way up here in Michigan - you must be dying 🥴
@@LakesideAutobody yep 109 here
Another good video Lakeside! Thanks!!

Thanks for watching Phillip 😊
@@LakesideAutobody
I thank you for putting out all this good stuff…
@@PhillipHall01 You're welcome - hopefully eventually I'll cover all the pitfalls one would come across in auto body repair. It's crazy how many ?s need to be answered :)
👍
Ok Jerry I just had a thought' do you think you could weld a nut to the panel and crank/twist it
to draw/shrink the metal and then grind the nut off?
Interesting thought.... I'll bet if the metal was still quite hot, that would eat up some metal. Like a stud welder but you could throw a wrench on it real quick, give it a twist, cool it, done! Start the patent process 😊
Nice
Thanks 😊
Wow mantap dan Kren hadir nyimak video nya kawan sukses dan sehat selalu sahabat selamat beraktifitas 🙏🙏👍👍👍
Senang Anda menyukai videonya teman saya. Halo dari Michigan ✌
I've used a wood "Dolly" on the back side and whacked the front side with a pick to eliminate oil canning. Apart from the dimples, do you think this changes the panel shape much differently than using the fire?
That's a good idea and I think it would have the same affect. The only downside is that you can't always get to the back side of a panel. Other than that, 'Good thinkin'!" 😊
@@LakesideAutobodyyour right, I didn't even think of that. Just letting you know, I've been practicing on my beater car and your videos are the best I've found with no bs and getting to the point. Keep it up brother, and thanks!
I shrink the metal with a stud gun. Put some heat, then cool it down with a little water on a rag.
Good idea - next time I'll give it a try. Thanks for the tip James ✌
Was that a flap wheel on the angle grinder?
That is a fiber resin disk - it's what all body shops use for removing paint, and scratching up the metal really well to prepare for filler. A lot of times you'll see guys on YT using and actual angle grinder - this is a buffer/sander. You won't see an electric angle grinder in a body shop - that more of a fabrication tool - i.e. building trailers, cutting angle iron, etc. The list of tools and materials are always listed in the video description :)
I found shrinking disc better, cheaper and more forgiving (as a beginner with no previous equipment)
Thanks Sidney - have a good weekend :)
are you using 80 grit ?
To remove paint and prep for filler use 36 or 40 grit fiber resin disks on somewhat slow speed - don't want to build to much heat. All tools and materials are listed in the video description if interested :)
@@LakesideAutobody thank you !
What is 'oil canning'?
It's where the panel pops in and out because it was somewhat stretched in an accident. After you bump or pull a dent, sometimes you'll notice that the newly repaired area pops in or pops out. That's not good! This is how you can fix it :) It's actually called shrinking sheet metal 👍
good job could call it jerry canning
👍😊
I don’t even know what oil canning is!
That is where a panel will pop in and out after bumping or pulling a dent because of stretched metal from the accident. There's too much metal now for the area so it pops in and out. It's also called shrinking metal :)
@@LakesideAutobody ahhhh… that makes sense. That’s a cool technique to remedy it! I learned something! Thank You!
