    This has been a fantastic series. David is such a likeable guy and so talented. His endless devotion to going the extra mile is so amazing. The paint looks great and those rock rails are flipping tremendous. Great job gentlemen! Can't wait for next video.

    Next time try tack welding on the screws, that way you can just knock them off and do some light grinding to smooth it out. Much better than drilling into the body and using a dent puller.

    • @thegamingchanel100
      @thegamingchanel100 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Mr. Labreck Also if there is a extreme crease like that make sure to put the screws just on the crease as it will follow it and all come out. Also if you have the money invest in a porta spot stud gun. Best investment you will make if you have a lot of dents to remove

      @@mattshansen9814 yes it will 😂 If the paint surface is uneven from application and curing (which is always the case), then buffing it will smooth out the paint. Smooth paint (both 2 stage and single) reflects lights better than bumpy/uneven paint. Better light reflection results in a better shine. So yes, single stage WILL definitely look better buffed.
