Here I thought the passenger side would be easier and no such luck! Running out of patch metal so I tried to be creative with my shape to maximize coverage. I tried turning up the heat on the welder and my final patch on the drivers side seemed to come out better, but not on the passenger side! I've been experiencing a lot of blow through. I'll have to dial it down some and fill with weld. More rust holes are making their presence known too so that was disappointing.

When I'm done, I'm planning on painting the ceiling and floor with POR15. Anyone with experience with this paint please comment if it will cover any pinholes in the metal I miss? Should I bother to put seam sealer on the welds? If so, before or after paint?
