    deliver the car wet, it’ll be impossible to tell what is a water drop and what is a clear drop 😉 lol

    Yep, that’s a toughy.

    The problem is Stone does tons of these things for this place, and they put them on, so it’ll never go unnoticed.

    I’d say all you’d have to do is knock down the front edge of the run and polish it out, but I’ve painted enough of those to know you have no chance of getting any sort of buffer in that tiny bolt indentation.

    Your best bet is to knock the run down with 400, scuff the rest of it, re-base in there and clear the whole thing again.

    knock it down quick and finish with 600 or finer, then instead of polishing, lightly blow in a little clear over-reduced with blending solvent. Then just quickly polish the face when done.

    I’ll tell him … no charge for the extra clear :rofl

    Oh shit Bondo did that comment make me laugh :rofl

    they make those little tiny buffing tips for a dremel tool. I do lots of fiberglass sanding, and I bet I could knock that down and buff it out. it may not be the perfect finish of the rest of it, but I’m sure it’s possible.

    how about that spot putty over the run trick! that would make it easier to sand down for sure

    August 12, 2010 at 11:51 pm #23823

    The problem is that opening there is about the size of a dime, even a Dremel tool would be hard to get in there. and if you did do to the small sides you would likely burn through the clear on the sides.

    IMO the only options are to let it ride, or sand that area out, scuff and re shoot.

    I am a little curious what ol’ Stoner ended up doing.
