How can I round the edge of a hood around a gas cap hole? I know what I'd use on wood but I don't know on metal.

Rounding an edge can be done several ways. You could make an iron ring the size of the hole, then have a body shop weld it under the hood around the hole with a mig welder, then use plastic filler to smooth it out, sand, prime, and paint. Also, you could work the tin down around the iron ring until you get it all fairly tight, then spot braze it on, and use plastic filler to finish it. Be sure to keep wet rags around the work area to minimize warping! RJ
