Is that to do with the hardening of the brass that @Dr G has mentioned more than once?And worst of all...dents which were previously BADLY repaired
I believe that is why the tech after straightening the metal applies a torch to it, to turn the work hardened metal ductile again. I remembered that from high school autoshop classes 50 years ago. Back then, we watched military training (I think in 16 mm reel film) movies. The autoshop teacher's brother worked in the library on one of the military bases back then, how the school had access.Is that to do with the hardening of the brass that @Dr G has mentioned more than once?
Not necessarily, I am more referring to dent repairs done improperly, for example using the wrong sized dentballs on an area....maybe the after effects of the brass settling in after the repair makes it worse. I was more stating if the repair is done poorly and the metal ultimately stretched as a result, getting it back to looking very good is often impossible.Is that to do with the hardening of the brass that @Dr G has mentioned more than once?
