Okay chaps have a look at this link, the video and give me your opinions, Could this possibly work ????.

I am very sceptical on this product, but they seem to stand behind it and are confident of it’s capabilities.
I am not a great lover of the smart repair culture.
They have secured a patent on it as well.
Could it get you out a mess late one afternoon or is it a loads of old bollocks lol

Thats is very interesting Nick. I am not sure what to think of it really.
I imagine it could come in very handy. Would I want to rely on it for making good color matches? No! Would it be a very helpful tool to keep put back for some situations? Yes!
Have you ever tinted a color for a bumper and thought you had it nailed only to see its off once on the car? I have, and I would think this product would be perfect for those situations. Help bail you out when your in a pickle!
Thanks for posting this Nick!

Yes that’s what i thought maybe handy when it’s one of those Friday’s when everything is going wrong lol
I just couldn’t imagine how you wouldn’t end up with a dry spray on your blending edge?
my jobber had a spray can thing kinda like that just to darken the color. dont remember who made it as i never tried any. was really skeptical of it
Nick – I know one of the guys going around demoing this, and he’s having a hard time keeping up with the interest. Now Dave knows he’ll never sell it to me in a million years, so has no reason to be biased, but he’s extremely impressed with the system himself.
I haven’t looked through that link (since I’ve heard it from the horses mouth), but he reckons it can be a life saver in some situations. As you say, late one afternoon when the customer is due to collect their car and it comes out of the oven a shade darker (possibly just due to extra clearcoat). What do you do?
With this it’s a very simple job to darken the edge of the adjacent panel, and apparently prep work is minimal due to the adhesion promoter, and it buffs back to an invisible blended edge.
Dave’s been in the business for years, many of them as a demo man, and it’s the first time I’ve seen him genuinely excited about a new product.
As I say, it’ll never be implemented here, but if I were ever to set up my own shop it would have a place in my cupboards 🙂
Really interesting, is there something like that available in the states?? How is it possible that it comes out to an invisible blended edge so easily?
That would be handy for those rushed through blend outs on bumpers that are going out that same day.. If it works :whistle:
“Just like magic”
:rofl
I went to a demo of this and it really works! You can mop the blended area as much as you like & it won’t pull back. It’s expensive, but cheaper than a rework. I’m buying some soon, so I’ll let you know how it goes.
Cheers
Davidya i will be curious ta see how ya like it interesting 😉
Im kinder wondering to if it really works. Would be really handy for a F***up..
i love to know if we can get it here in the states as well. if it works as well as it say, i call it job security. hell i’d pay out of my own pocket for it.
