How do you feel bout using POR Patch for filling screw holes
I have a series of holes from sheet metal screws that held the clamps that secured the air conditioning tubing I just removed. I was thinking about simply replacing the old screws with stainless steel screws. Now wondering if the POR patch or a combination of POR Patch and stainless screws might be a better choice. Any Thoughts about this or other options?
Here's a link to the POR Patch http://www.amazon.com/POR-15-49013-Black-POR-Patch/dp/B00J594AQ2/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1451878277&sr=8-4&keywords=Por+15+sealant |

I use a dab of black silicone paste from a tube and smooth with a finger.

I wonder how this stuff would fair in the 1/2" holes left behind by a 5-point harness bolted through the floor...

This... The POR Patch would work well but it would be much harder to remove if needed.

As for the small holes left by a screw, put the screw back in the hole and seal over it. The POR product is probably just another sealant. You can find dozens of them at any auto parts store. I like 3M products myself. JR |

Like you, I took the screws out for air cond. tubing, but didn't do anything with the holes for quite some time. Now, I'm worried about rust starting in the holes. Is there a good solution for making sure no rust exists in there, and sealing it. Thanks

I used clear flexible Permatex silicone sealant for my AC hose holes.
