Raven R code 281 Report post Posted June 12, 2014 Did anyone have problems with doors being "out of shape" after installing door skins? I was thinking of gluing the door skins along the entire seam area instead of spot welding them. Then I was going to take a flat 3/8" punch and dimple the seam to replicate the spot weld look. But someone mentioned that they glued their chevelle door skins and ran into problems with the door alignment and because they skins were glued, they couldn't tweak the doors easily. Now another autobody guy says that is how he does all his door skins and never has problems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JTG 10 Report post Posted June 12, 2014 I had a body guy help me with my skins we did last month and we glued them. The only welds we did were up near the top of each corner. We fit the driver's sit and it looked good. I haven't put the passenger side door on yet. He said they glue their doors at his shop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rsanter 152 Report post Posted June 12, 2014 If you have as pot welder you can spot weld then like the factory did by using a larger (say 1" x 1" ) copper pad under the tong on the door skin side so that it dosent digit the skin Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustangBobby 28 Report post Posted June 13, 2014 If you glue it, just make sure you mount the door and align it before the glue sets. I would recommend the slow glue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
