Default SEAM SEALER CAUSED RIPPLES--- HOW TOEVEN OUT YOUR DOOR PANELS>>FREE

Hi guys, I just posted a link on the seam sealer issue Id been told about. After a while the door panels can ripple where the sealer bonds them to the impact beam. I talked to a local dent guy and he suggested I cut away the old sealer and reseal it. I did the deed tonight and it made a big difference. I just removed the door panel, and took an exacto knife and cut the seam sealer away, then resealed it with fresh sealer. This allowed the door panel to pop back. Its worth a shot before you spend $$ on dent repair. Also if this is whats causing your dimples, they wont be wable to pop those spots out without removing the sealer anyway. Food for thought if you have the same issue I did. Good luck.

Hi guys, id post a pic, but I dont have any before photos, so all you'll see is a straight door panel. you'll have to take my word for it, if you have ripples along one horizontal line on the door, good chance they're because of the sealer. Its worth a try for the 30 minutes or so it takes. Ryan
