  • Good video, would have been better if the technician didn't scratch the paint with the long knife used as a scrapper. Rust will develop because of this. Can't understand why the industry still utilizes a long knife in this situation verses a scrapper tool.

  • @geodesic9 I agree. This video was produced a long time ago and before the realization of the damage caused by "plunge cutting" and similar actions took place. Every avoidance of penetrating the factory E-coat should be taken when removing urethane adhesive from a pinchweld.
