Good afternoon, excellent blend. Another trick that I use to make that blend line go away is a clay bar. It really works great. Take care and good luck.
I really wish I had known about your channel 3 years ago. Would have saved me a lot of money, heartache, and work if I had just done it myself over trusting two different shops. But, I wasn't confident enough to do it by myself – not until I watched a lot of your videos. I really appreciate them.
I've heard that the longevity on this (done properly) is many years. One person I know did it on his front fender and 5 years later it is still just like the day he did it. I know a lot of painters frown on this, but I also know most painters aren't really that good at their craft (at least around here). Thoughts on this technique?
Wow the repair is invisible, great work!.👍🏻
I do alot of clear blending…it seems I always have the best results the day after…even after baking… I try to wait as long as possible… never have any problems that way… like you said if you hit it to early you may run in to problems. Vert true
so how long does that blended clear edge last…3yrs..5…lifetime?
Great tips been watching you for about 5 years now and I'm starting to get into. Blending
