Corroda 11 Posted December 15, 2022 Nice job there. You’re clearly a dab hand with a grinder, oops I mean welder 😂 Paint blended in well 👍 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oneohtwo 4 Posted December 15, 2022 Ah interesting. Did you do it long ago, and has held up since? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Matt_ 20 Posted December 15, 2022 Yeah it's been on the car for a year now. It could be a reaction between base coat and your lacquer possibly on yours? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oneohtwo 4 Posted December 15, 2022 Hmm, not sure. Maybe I didn't get a good enough mix of hardener. Seems an odd product though as there are plenty of reviews online that have had the same issues as me, and others which it's been fine for. On Amazon, it's got a rating of 2.7 stars. The reviews are either 1 or 5 star! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
