Fab question -

Looking at pictures of that gas cap install, you show a picture of it welded in and sanded pretty heavily. At this point, you can still see the voids in the weld. This is what my metal work looks like after grinding/sanding. Then, in the next picture, it shows it completely sanded and smooth with no voids.

Was the first picture just an intermediate step, or do you go back in and weld it again to fill in the voids, and then do the final grinding to all smooth metal ?
