I read somewhere that non-metal surfaces like bumpers do not dissipate heat as metal does. I was wondering if you can burn the paint on these surfaces vs abrading through. So is there a difference between a strike through vs a burn through. Do any of you keep track of temperatures as you are "aggressively" working paint?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

The term: "burn-through" =
a derivation of the term:
"strike-through" (on the
other side of the pond);

{Or, vice versa.}

Yes bumpers give you no warning like metal.it boils down to common sense.

Bumpers are also known to paint wrinkle.

This recent thread can attest to that:

Someone (not a member of this forum):
twisted the micturate
out of the paint...

and had the very gall to return the vehicle
to the paying Customer in this condition
without a peep of the damage they inflicted!!!
