How To Spot Body Damage On A Car - Chesapeake PCA Region Tech Session
How many times have you bought a used car only to find out, other than how useless Carfax can be, that your new purchase that has "never been hit", has actually been repainted? Do you know what clamp marks are? Do you know where a fender is welded to the body and how to look for the welds? Have you ever seen a paint gauge meter in action? If you want to become a better car buyer, please make the time to come out to the Chesapeake Region PCA's next tech session.
Along with tech chair John Patterson, I will be leading this fun session on Saturday April 18 from 9:00am-12:00pm. Over the years, I've picked up lots of helpful hints and learned quite a bit, sometimes the hard way, about what to look for when buying a used vehicle. I've also had numerous friends ask me to come along with them to look at a potential purchase and have saved some of them from making a costly mistake.
I really look forward to passing along some of the knowledge that I've learned in order to help people become better car buyers.

seam sealer is sprayed on at the factory and brushed on aftermarket. If you think it has been damaged make sure the liners are removed and a paint meter is used. You will find it.
