Hey I was wondering if anyone here can tell me how to roll my fenders. I did it before but on an old car it came out ok. But now im looking at doing a cleaner job this time around. If any one has any tips that would be great.

heat gun, blue painters masking tape, and a fender roller...or steel pipe like a jack handle with tape on it.
Or how much would you be willing to pay to do it?![]()
I was gonna ask the same question

baseball bats work good too. make ure to put te masking tape fully around the lip. otherwise when you roll, paint will chip. leave the tire on with the bat
I found out personally that a ball peen hammer works out best too. You initially start off by using the ball peen side of the hammer to get it started. After that, flip the hammer over to the flat side to finish it off. You keep hitting the next edge until it starts to go down. As long as you follow the edge, you won't have to worry about paint flaking or dings or dents
K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.
It's not just the impact that flakes the paint but the stress and stretching of the metal underneath at the corner as it expands, if the paint doesn't give too it will crack at the corner...Originally Posted by blackshine007
heat up the paint before you start rolling with whatever tool you use. just soften it up so it doesnt crack
and if it does, just give it a little touch up paint action :P
what car are you rolling on if u dont mind me asking?
dont take anything i say srsly. its the interwebs.
I have a fender roller PM me for info
sorry to jack up threads and shit...but who wants to fender roll my r32 skyline for a descent price?
