smoothing firewall
 
over the weekend i started filling in the firewall holes i am not using on my car (it may not be the best job but i am a newb to welding :rolleyes: ). It may not have come out picture perfect but i am happy with it and with a little skim coat should be able to sand perfectly smooth. The more i look at it i thought i would be happy with the two panel seams showing (from pass fender bolt to wiper motor seam) but i was wondering if there is any product that i could put in there to make that smooth as well without cutting out the entire thing and redoing it....

Do you mean to fill the body seam on the fire wall?? It will flex to much to just fill it, it will crack. You could make a filler piece of metal and weld it in to fill the gap, but if I were you I would just cut it out and start over with a piece of 16 gauge steel.
