    Mike as always, people will appreciate it as I do. Little tips like this one could break or save anybody.

    Remember some customers they stand next to you when you do a test spot and they last thing you want to do is to see a costly mistake like this one happining when the customer is standing besides you.
    Thanks for sharing your story as this backs up what this article teaches and will help others into the future.

    That's why forums like AGO are a resource or tool for both enthusiast and pro detailers....

    I stumbled upon this thread. Great stuff! As a newb, I wondered about "that line." Makes plenty of great sense. (commercial break of NYE celebration!)

    Thanks, Mike!

    Excellent article, Mike!

    I experienced this phenomenon while putting my practice panel through it's paces last year. I could literally feel the raised area.

    Just a lesson from the school of hard knocks trying to share forwards.


    Someone on our D101 FB group brought this article up so after sharing it on the FB D101 group I checked this thread for replies I may have missed over the years and found the above.


    No such thing as an OLD thread or OLD article is the information is accurate.

    Re: The LINE ---> How to avoid the line!

    I learned this the hardway as well.
    I tried masking around a Z-71 stcker on a freshly painted panel that got scratched a couple days after leaving the shop.

    Instead of masking the entire outline I went straight from the Z to the 7 ,wet sandded scratch and hit with the rotary and when I was done ...voila!!..there it was,,the tape burnt a line into the clear...I was P.O.d to say the least.

    a little fannagaling and care I got it removed but not a mistake I have made since,,,that was 98 or 99
