Tig welding is preferred on sheet metal where the metal can be worked. Tig welding can actually put more heat into a panel. The benefit is the weld is softer and workable. In a seam that is not the case.
Make sure you also seal the rear of the seam or you can get a moisture issue if the seam has any pin holes in the weld.
Black cars get very hot in the sun. Ever put your hand on a black car after sitting in the sun for an hour or so? Do yourself a favor and take a cut off wheel and put the seam back in or have someone fill with lead.
After you fill, sand, and prime throw the car out in the hot sun and let that primer coat set. Then sand again and seal. Also try and dry not wet sand the primer in that area.
There is always a nice off white??
Good luck.
