. Sand these areas carefully and clean thoroughly with soap and water. Leave a little bit of a scuff in the metal to allow the bondo to stick. * +

Apply bondo to the dents using a plastic scr*per. Apply large amounts of bondo so it completely covers the dents and goes over the edges. When the repairs dry, retest your gas tank for leaks. * +

Sand the bondo using a hand sander and heavy 80 grit sand paper. Once you have the bondo sanded to the general shape you want, sand it down to a finer shape using 120 grit sand paper. * +

Apply the primer to your gas tank. Use even strokes and apply several coats until the repairs are totally covered. Primer can be applied very thick to hide smaller divots or imperfections. * +

When applying bondo it is best to apply it in one even stroke, making sure there are no air pockets or lumps in the bondo. Mix bondo quickly and only mix as much as you need for each repair since it begins to harden quickly. Large leaks should be repaired by professionals, and tested before use. Leaking gas tanks are definitely unsafe on the road. *
