question for framebuilders

I am in the process of refinishing my classic 79 Puch frame.
currently the paint is being stripped.

question- the small holes that are there for gasses to escape while the frame is brazed,
both fork legs top and bottom,
both rear leg tubes top and bottom
are they still necessary? I was thinking of filling them with bondo before going to the painter, my opinion is that moisture wont get in, rust wont come out, and any traces of paint stripper can hind in there anymore.

thanks for opinions
