Fixing hole in corrugated alum siding?
Got an ugly hole, 2ft long and few inches wide, just above the bottom frame. Narrow gate, don't ask. Covered with a "handyman's secret weapon" - duct tape, you can see it. Looks surprisingly ...

One 23ft panel from front to back molding, with nice and accurate cuts around the front hatch, wheels, and furnace hatch? Ouch...
SMK's suggestion of diamond plate got me thinking. Might still do this. Just one side, there is no symmetry with all those storage and appliance lids and hatches anyway. What about cutting 3ft strip out of corrugated panel, and sticking it up on that hole somehow? Riveting, caulking, whatever. Would have to be more than 3ft, to cover adjacent dents and bumps, not just the hole. Cutting a piece out of 0.125 alum (I think it's 0.125), and keeping edges clean, without curls, is not easy. Have never done this.
