For larger holes (lock, antenna, doorhandles) put masking tape over top of the holes. Trace out hole. Remove tape. Place tape on new material(same gage as car sheet metal) Cut filler plate out. Hold your piece of brass across the back of where you are welding (helps dissipate heat and stops blow through)

Spot weld only!!!! And don't get the area to hot.

When hole is all welded up, grind down with a feathering disk.

Skim with a little filler(shouldn't need much)
Sand
and Paint

Looks good and lasts forever

Not saying the other way is totaly wrong, it's just not right LOL
