working in the sun

how do you guys go about doing corrections in the sun? what methods do you use when doing a panel to cool down the surface?

Poorboys products working in small areas, or buy a canopy :)

I use a 12x12 EzUp canopy that came with side curtains. If the vehicle doesnt fit in the canopy I just do a panel at a time

You may want to check into the Pinnacle XMT Series, it says it can be used in the sun.

I don't do corrections in the sun--usually the panels are too hot---many correction products don't fare too well under those conditions...and neither do I!

I feel that since there are many reasons one shouldn't wash vehicles in the sun, that many of those same reasons are applicable to corrections in the sun.

As an old guy I was going to say........
Wear a long sleeve shirt, a broad brim hat and plenty of sunblock.
But then you are not MY grandkids.

But I always wait for the sun to go away, use a canopy, or hire some young ladies with umbrellas.

I bought Poorboy's stuff so I could work in the sunlight. I have a carport so I could use that, but I could see the defects better in the sunlight. So I go to use the first step polish and the panel is so hot the polish just turned to sludge after just a few seconds. The ROP could barely turn.

So, while you can use Poorboy's stuff in direct sunlight, if the panel is hot the performance is bad.

Get yourself a collapsible white canopy, Set it up securely to ensure "it" doesn't move if a gust of wind comes up. Drive the car under it and get to work! :laughing:
