Hey Doc, I'm soon to start my own Gremlin grill repair and have been reading your posts and others as well to gather sufficient info before laying hands on mine. I have two grills I'm going to work on as I don't know which one I will actually go with yet. I've got the original 72 grill as well as a later 74+ X that I'm contemplating using without a bumper. I kinda like that look too. On my 72 grill at the top at one of the screw holes, I have a small piece missing that will need to be built out and sanded down. On the 74+ grill, the round built up post/spacer that surrounds the screw hole is broken out leaving a nice round hole. It will need to be rebuilt (though maybe I should just scrap that one and find another?). Question: What are you using (if anything) as a backing or holder to limit the spread of the compound when filling in the crack or missing piece for the first time. I was thinking taping across the crack or opening to at least trying for a flat surface on the exterior side of thegrill and then filling in behind, removing the tape, then sanding the exterior side.... Not sure that's the best way. Any better methods out there? Thanks.
