Seam welding a S13 with epoxy?

[Surewin]

Any opinions about using an epoxy, like the one in the link below, to bond the chassis seams together? Essentially seam welding with epoxy.

Other ideas I have been thinking about: soldering & brazing. Comments?

it's just metal glue. not for structural parts

Yeah, straight from the link that you provided:

"Two-part epoxy used to bond steel, aluminum, SMC and FRP. For use on outer body panels only, not on structural components. (Automotive Aftermarket Division)"

If you're going to seam-weld, just seam-weld.

Not that I know that much about it, although I would like to do it to my car once I get enough downtime to strip it down to the frame and do a fresh repaint. I'm not sure of the benefits of seam vs. spot vs. stitch welding.

OK, point taken. How about this epoxy...
