hey guys im working on my 94 2 door blazer and my driver side rocker is rusted out a little bit. i was thinking if putting duct tape and the bondo over that would work but im not sure..or throw me some quick fixes for this problem im not looking for it to be perfecr jus decent thanks

Why not go with a fiberglass patch using a woven sheet of fiberglass to cover the hole?
One thing is for sure, a quick fix will not stay hidden for very long. You should cut out the rot and weld in new, but not everyone has that option...

duct tape is just gonna make you quack up later on down the road when a chunk of bondo goes flyin off your truck, from using it with duct tape.. do what Kyle said and find someone near you to weld in a new piece of metal and do right the first time around..theres only so much duct tape in this world..

you could try herculiner? i have the same problem and i think i'm gonna throw some on mine

I doubt hurculiner will patch a hole. Fix it right, you'll be happier with it in the long run, where Bondo or fiberglass would crack and start to seperate from the metal, a new piece of metal will still look good. It's not a hard place to weld a new piece in either, it's a flat surface, just make sure your buddy knows what he'd doing and that he gets his payment of beer AFTER he's done the work lol.
