Never used it meself, but some mates who have tried it say you have to get the ally very hot indeed and you must use a stainless steel wire brush to clean the ally first. BUT you say mend a hole in your leggies which are steel and should be MIG welded.

its not a weld but a surface bond a bit like braze there will over time be some reaction between the alloy and the steel causing it to bubble or
oxidize and basically feck ur paint

no good for leggies, used it to good effect on engine cases, need to heat to 350° first need a good blowtorch, tough stuff when used correctly,
