Re: Newb asking for fender dent repair advice?

for the bag..the finer the sand the harder the surface...course sand has more movement to it...mostly your choice....I use a bag of #8 lead birdshot

wheres Richard? MP&C...
im not sure that spare tire indent will flip by hammering and ever look right...im betting there was a lot of metal stretching going on when they formed that...
I don't know if you saw where I removed a spare tire notch on mine, but I took 2 fenders and made one
I'm wondering if itd be easier to cut out the indent ,flip it over, and weld it back in...but I'm not sure what the shape is and if it would ever match....a profile gauge would tell you a lot
but who knows ..it might turn wrong side out with no problems
