Special file holder for soft metals (tin file)

In automobiles, tin has several applications: welding, filling. A noble material, tin is superior to various sealants, particularly in terms of mechanical resistance, resistance to heat and time, but also by its ease of working. It also has the significant advantage of being able to be used with inexpensive equipment. We will focus here on showing its use as a "filling". Indeed it is used to fill hollows on the sheet following shocks (bump) or for welds after repairs, as well as to plug small rust holes […] Tin is not intended to fill in large rust holes. In case of rust with significant perforation, a partial replacement of the element is recommended.

Before the appearance of polyester putties, steel bodies were traditionally “putty” with tin. .
