I'm sure you can take a picture such that I can't see it.
You really think your 2-hour touch up job is undetectable? There is always an edge, you can feather it out but it can still be seen, and sure the pic in teh OP is a terrible job and I'm sure you could do much better, but... I'm sure I could still find it.

No. I do not, and I also do not need to "fool" you with camera trickery....I'm offering the OP an alternative to what he obviously does not want. Nothing more nothing less. I never made claim to being a body repair guru.
What I AM saying is that a very good repair is possible without painting the whole 1/4, and that there is not.much to lose in the attempt. If done well most would not notice the repair unless they specifically looked for it. It would certainly look better than what someone has already done. I have made minor repairs on my own car that no one notices, but to ME they look like huge imperfections. I know where to look. I'll leave it at that. OP, good luck with whatever you decide to do.

But you also said it would be "impossible" to spot, which I disagreed with. From his follow-up it sounds like he'd be OK with something that looks a bit better than what he's going to get and I agree a repair would be just that. |
