Reply to "The 5376 tread."

I'm quite pleased with myself today, after I managed to get the bent steel much closer to its original shape than I expected. Using a heat-gun to soften the paint, and a hard rubber hammer to smack the car, it turned out cuite well. Behind the door I will need to fill in 2mm or less (about 1/12") before repainting, and the same on the door, exept for just in the middle where the dent went from over the doors bead (if that's what it is called) to under it. It is placed just over the doors internal strebghtening, whitc means MUCH MUCh more job to fix a 2" part that now will require about 3-4 mm (less than 1/6") of bondo on that short piece. That I can live with. So, a quick fix of paint tomorrow I hope, and so, block-sanding the clear. Back in buisnesSmiler
