Never heard of this. The lead was not smooth on my 69, so I took it down to clean bare lead and re-leaded it. I used epoxy primer over it, and have had no issues. If figured the lead was less likely to shrink over time as opposed to any other filler. That's been 15 years ago, and all is still good.

I didn't look back to see; did Mark use a different filler in place of lead? Or did he just use new lead?

Would be interested to know.
